The Research Center for Leadership in Action (RCLA) at New York
University's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service is calling
for
applications for the Global Social Change Leadership Institute being held
July
8-20, 2012, in New York City.

The Global Social Change Leadership Institute offers an opportunity for
university and graduate students and recent college graduates to strengthen
their leadership ability and skills, learn about cutting-edge research on
leadership and social change, and see firsthand what makes organizations at
the forefront of advancing social justice successful.

The curriculum draws on more than seven years of rigorous research RCLA has
conducted with award-winning social change organizations about the
essential role these nonprofits play in an informed and engaged civil
society. Program participants learn from experts at the forefront of
policy reform and advocacy, coalition building and direct service.
Interactive workshops are paired with site visits throughout New York
City offering participants a robust understanding of both the theory and
practice of leadership and social change. Participants emerge with an
understanding of social change leadership, a plan for taking action in
their school or community, and a network of other advocates committed to
social justice.
