The Local to Global Justice Teach-in is a forum for sharing knowledge that doesn't rely on "experts." At this annual event, we recognize that everyone has something to teach and something to learn. Similar to the Social Forums that have been held around the world since 2001, the L2GJ Teach-In feels more like a festival than a conference.
Our primary goal is to educate ASU students and the greater community about local and global justice, while promoting diversity, freedom of speech, and academic freedom of discussion. We believe it is vital to connect local diversity, sustainability, and social justice issues to larger global struggles.
This year’s theme is intended to remind us all that we need to care for ourselves so that we may be healthy and able to make stronger linkages in our communities and more effectively work to solve our local and global struggles. We believe the best way to create a better world is to engage in dialogue with each other so we may better work together to share the work that needs to be done.
