Facilitating Community-Driven Leadership

In Facilitating Community-Driven Leadership, students will expand their critical skills for working with diverse audiences, communities, and community leaders. They will develop an understanding of how communities define leadership. Students will also clarify their positionality, define the stakes of their work, and take ownership of their individual power and organizational possibilities. This course combines contemporary theory in community engagement and leadership with applied projects that develop the student's critical and analytical skills as community leaders.
