Our largest online offering yet! We are offering an extensive program of online courses this year as we continue our commitment to developing knowledge and skills for social change. Online courses begin in April 2021 and offer the opportunity to learn with a cohort of change leaders from around the globe while balancing work and family commitments, offering affordable rates, and ensuring the health and safety of participants and staff by learning from home. Our program staff have developed five new courses, increasing opportunities for citizens passionate about social change – especially Indigenous, women, and youth leaders. Join us as we explore subjects ranging from feminist leadership and justice, to climate change and community resilience, to the future of work and workers, and more!
