    Making Change: Basics of Organizing for Social Justice

    The Making Change: Organizing for Social Justice workshop will provide participants with a hands-on introduction to the skills needed to organize effectively for social change in campus and community-wide environments. Building on basic conflict management skills, participants will learn how to identify stakeholders and potential allies, develop outreach strategies, and build a campaign of concern. The training, which will include roleplaying and other interactive learning exercises, will be an invaluable resources for both newcomers seasoned organizers alike.

    Each CMC workshop provides theory-based content and practice-proven skills, providing participants with both a foundation and a springboard for building their personal and professional capacities in conflict transformation and group facilitation.
