Communities Learning Together

How do we build ethical and sustainable local and global partnerships? What are strategies to co-construct pathways that transform how we learn together? Join us for a conversation that will provide principles and on-the-ground realities of university-community partnerships. Joan Clifford, Director of the Community-Based Language Initiative with Duke Service-Learning, will summarize her recent research on university-community partnerships. Liliana Paredes, Professor of the Practice of Romance Studies, will provide an international model by describing her partnership with Universidad de las Américas in Mexico. Participants will reflect together on how we can teach and learn in ways that put communities first. Please join us on Zoom - all are welcome.
