Many students and staff long for the deep connections with peers that help them recognize their own resilience and experience a sense of belonging. Join us for an exploration of innovative and proven ways to build practical skills and apply transformative learning activities in your own programs and districts!

In this webinar, you will discover a uniquely creative approach from Crossing Borders Education (CBE), a global non-profit that interlinks the power of film, communication technology and group dialogue work to serve students to overcome isolation and online fatigue. CBE brings together expertise in transformative learning and participant media production that combine to offer effective ways to support students to experience deep social connections, purpose, and actions during challenging times. These two trailers provide an introduction to the CBE Vision and easily scalable Programs.

Our panel includes both the architect of this uniquely interactive methodology and facilitators who are experienced in applying this approach. The panel will be showcasing the use of creative materials and sharing their thoughts and perspectives on practical ways to grow vital skills, build resilience and nurture hope through uplifting per-to-peer interactions.
