SUMMARY:Presentation:Imagine Doing Better: Actions to Make a Better World Possible
DESCRIPTION:In this interactive presentation\, Dr. Paul Fleming will discuss how to think about and approach creating communities where all people can thrive. In his work\, he partners with community-based organizations and community organizers to help bring equity and anti-racism principles into practice.
