"Creating Change" Workshop
|
|
Join us in San Diego for Creating Change: Testimony & Strategic Storytelling, a workshop for educators, advocates and direct service providers. |
|
On March 24th, The Voices and Faces Project is bringing Creating Change: Testimony and Strategic Storytelling to the Center for Justice and Reconciliation at Point Loma Nazarene University. We developed this workshop for educators and advocates who seek to focus on best practices in generating and sharing testimony, think about the role of testimony in educating the public on social justice issues, and incorporate testimony and storytelling into their teaching methodology and practices across disciplines.
Workshop participants will discuss examples of testimonial writing, engage in real-time writing exercises, reflect on their own stories as educators, and participate in a series of seminar-style conversations about how to use story as a vehicle for personal and political change.
Co-created by author and educator R. Clifton Spargo of Yale University and writer and activist Anne K. Ream of The Voices and Faces Project, this workshop is ideal for those seeking to share the stories they have lived through or witnessed impactfully, ethically, and mindfully.
Special thanks to the Van Otterloo Foundation for supporting this vital project!

Our stories are our power.
At The Voices and Faces Project we’re using them to create change. |
The Voices and Faces Project is an award-winning non-profit storytelling initiative created to bring the names, faces, and testimonies of survivors of gender-based violence to the attention of the public. Through our educational and advocacy trainings, survivor story archive and signature program, The Stories We Tell — an immersive, two-day testimonial writing workshop for those who have lived through or witnessed gender-based violence or other human rights violations — we seek to change minds, hearts, and public policies through the power of personal testimony. The Voices and Faces Project has been named one of America's Best Charities by the board of Independent Charities of America, and is a registered 501c3 organization.
