Applications Due March 15 for Global Social Change Leadership Institute, July 8-20 in NYC

[Announcement from Comm-engagedscholarship]


Dear community-engaged scholarship colleagues,

The Research Center for Leadership in Action (RCLA) at New York University's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service is calling for applications for the Global Social Change Leadership Institute being held July 8-20, 2012, in New York City.

The Global Social Change Leadership Institute offers an opportunity for university and graduate students and recent college graduates to strengthen their leadership ability and skills, learn about cutting-edge research on leadership and social change, and see firsthand what makes organizations at the forefront of advancing social justice successful.

The curriculum draws on more than seven years of rigorous research RCLA has conducted with award-winning social change organizations about the essential role these nonprofits play in an informed and engaged civil society. Program participants learn from experts at the forefront of policy reform and advocacy, coalition building and direct service.
Interactive workshops are paired with site visits throughout New York City offering participants a robust understanding of both the theory and practice of leadership and social change. Participants emerge with an understanding of social change leadership, a plan for taking action in their school or community, and a network of other advocates committed to social justice.


The deadline to be considered for Early Admission is Friday, February 24, 2012. The deadline to apply for Regular Admission is Thursday, March 15, 2012.
