Virtual Workshop for Students: Local Letters for Global Change – Oct 16

Posted by Pulitzer Center on October 1, 2024

Tell your local leaders, and the wider world, what matters most to you. The Pulitzer Center, in partnership with YouthServe, invites you to an interactive workshop where we’ll explore how to use news stories as a starting point for taking action. We’ll make local connections to global issues, brainstorm solutions to the problems facing our communities, and walk away with tools for writing a letter to decisionmakers that argues for the change you want to see. Letters begun in this workshop can be entered into the Pulitzer Center’s Local Letters for Global Change contest for the chance to win cash prizes and publication.

All students ages 13-18 are welcome to participate, as well as educators and parents/guardians. This workshop will be held via Zoom meeting, and participants will be invited to engage in discussion using their microphones and the chat.

We will meet Wednesday, October 16, 6:30-7:30pm.

The event is free, but registration is required.
