About Engines of Change™
By
encouraging young leaders to recognize that hate, prejudice, and apathy
continue to harm individuals and our society, this program encourages
the next generation to care about and confront these perils. By
fostering a community of Upstanders on their campuses, schools help to
support the development of active citizenship in our democracy. The
Ambassadors will improve their ability to analyze concerns that affect
their city, state, and the larger world on their campus through this
program. The Engines of Change Program can be implemented in a variety
of ways on your middle or high school campus; as an extra-curricular
club, advisory period or as a component of a special topics course.
Why Engines of Change™?
The
EOC Student Ambassadors will be actively engaged in their own education
and community, helping to lead discussions on several topics including:
- The Holocaust and Genocide
- Identity & Values
- Social Justice
- Civil Discourse
- Human Rights
- Active Citizenship
What’s Included
During
this free of charge training, educators will receive curriculum
resources and lesson plans, learn tools for integrating and implementing
the program at their campuses, and will work with other educators in
developing programming that will meet the needs of their students,
schools, and communities. Lunch will be provided for all participants at
no cost.
