Help KWIC Celebrate their 30th Anniversary and get your tickets to the keynote and Workshop with Bayo Akomolafe!
We have different ticketing options available: We have student pricing, some complimentary workshop tickets available for Indigenous/BIPOC folks, and some sliding scale tickets for the evening keynote.
TEACH Outside the Box are inviting community educators/facilitators and those interested in education to participate in TEACH Outside the Box Social Justice Certificate program.
TEACH is a unique opportunity for community and classroom educators to collaborate on the topic of incorporating social justice into education work. The program consists of a a series of five interactive workshops to explore critical education theories from various perspectives (global, Indigenous, anti-oppression, popular education), different ways to teach (in and outside of the classroom) and how to implement them in the community or the classroom. At TEACH Outside the Box you will be part of a collaborative network of educators, learning alongside your peers and from community partners as you build your own social justice education toolbox! The certificate will include practical applications of social justice education that will relate to your specific field of work based on the material shared in each month's workshop.
If you are interested you can register online under the Registration tab on their website https://teachpeterborough.wordpress.com/registration/Registration closes in early October but space is limited and it may close sooner if spots fill up.
