This message has been approved by Dr. Joi Phillips, director of the Center for Leadership & Social Change, for distribution to students, faculty and staff.

The Center for Leadership & Social Change is calling for proposals for the 2021 Social Change Symposium.

The symposium aims to spark a passion for community-led change initiatives via social movement solidarity. To do that, students will learn about a variety of social issues from many perspectives, bringing together the expertise of Florida State faculty, staff, and Tallahassee community leaders.

Over the course of three weekends (January 22/23, 29/30, and February 5/6), students will be invited to virtually attend workshops and small group sessions on topics such as Anti-racism, Interfaith inclusion, Anti-sexism, Transgender inclusion, Anti-heterosexism, Anti-classism, Anti-ableism, and Anti-xenophobia. The symposium is free and is available to all currently enrolled FSU students and students from invited regional college and university partners. 

More information about proposals, including the submission form, can be found at thecenter.fsu.edu/scs/proposals. Submissions are due Nov. 23 by 11:59 p.m.
