Thank you for your interest in participating in the Changemaker Fest 2014! Before you submit your proposal here's some background on the FEST.
What is the Changemaker FEST?
The Changemaker FEST is a week dedicated to defining, exploring, and putting change into action. Join us throughout the week of September 30-October 3, 2014 to become part of an energized environment encouraging everyone to be a Changemaker and to celebrate our fourth-year designated as an Ashoka U Changemaker Campus. As a Changemaker Campus, USD aspires to engage economic, social and environmental change around the world. The Changemaker FEST is a community driven week of celebration, dedicated to exploring the many ways in which students, faculty, and community leaders can become practitioners of changemaking on a daily basis, tackling change within oneself as well as on a local and global level.
How do I Participate?
The Changemaker FEST is accepting proposals to engage, challenge, and inspire your peers in also taking up the practice of changemaking. This can be done in many ways; we do encourage you to be as creative and innovative as possible.
We don't have a theme for this year's FEST, however we will be using the tag line "REFIN(e)D yourself" alluding to the idea of practicing changemaking starting with the self and finding your place to make change happen.
Please SUBMIT your proposal by FRIDAY, June 13, 2014
