Do you know a student at
Eastern Connecticut State University who is ready to help change the
world?
In April, Oxfam America will
select 50 incredible undergraduates from the U.S. and around the world to be
part of our national leadership program, the CHANGE Initiative (www.oxfamamerica.org/change).
CHANGE offers students the opportunity to develop essential leadership skills
as social change agents, while encouraging civic engagement and heightening
their awareness of their own cultural worldview. It further gives students the
resources they need to become advocates and make a difference in the global
fight against hunger, poverty, and injustice.
Students selected as CHANGE
Leaders:
- Connect with Oxfam staff and have access to expert
skills based training, resources, materials and year-round support;
- Engage in community service & advocacy efforts that
address critical community needs;
- Find their own leadership identity;
- Develop confidence and the skills to effect positive,
lasting social change, and
- Become part of an active and growing, global network of
peers and alumni working on social justice issues.
We are recruiting for CHANGE
Leaders to serve on their campus during the 2012-2013 academic year. They are
invited to attend an all-expense paid leadership training in Boston, MA in
July.
Applications are due April 2 –
have Eastern Connecticut State University students apply and help spread the
word!
