Fulbright: Live abroad after you graduate

submitted by kipperj@augsburg.edu

The Fulbright Student Program fully funds students to study, research, or serve as an English teaching assistant abroad for a year (no classroom teaching experience required!). During their year abroad, Fulbrighters meet, work, live with and learn from the people of the host country, sharing daily experiences. The program facilitates cultural exchange through direct interaction on an individual basis in the classroom, field, home, and in routine tasks, allowing participants to gain an appreciation of others’ viewpoints and beliefs, the way they do things, and the way they think.

Past Augsburg students have been selected for Fulbright Awards to countries such as Czech Republic, South Korea, Ecuador, Poland, Kenya, Malaysia, Peru, Spain, Turkey, Taiwan, and Germany (and more!), and we currently have six alums abroad through the program! Augsburg’s focus on cross-cultural engagement and community involvement makes Auggies particularly strong candidates who are well-prepared to make the most of a Fulbright experience.

If you would like to learn more about the program, please contact urgo@augsburg.edu or stop by Hagfors 101 to set up an appointment for April or May!

The competition is open to juniors, seniors, graduate students, and alumni in all fields, and a GPA of 3.0+ is considered competitive.

Potential topics for breakout sessions include, but are not limited to:
*Scholar-activism and community-based research: examples and lessons learned
*Relationship-building and decentralized decision making
*Sustaining long-term commitments with neighborhoods and communities
*Critical scholarship on community engagement including racial justice, economic justice, education justice, disability justice, queer, and feminist theory and practices
*Lessons from community organizing
*Asset-based community development
*Power analysis and community voice
*Anti-racist storytelling strategies
*Preparing students to enter and transition out of place-based community engagement

Breakout session proposals are due Monday, May 13th, 2019 at 5pm PST.

Sexual Violence Prevention Month – April

submitted by garvey@augsburg.edu

April is Sexual Violence Prevention Month.

From the National Sexual violence Resource Center:
You can support survivors
Chances are you know someone who has experienced sexual violence even if they haven’t told you.
They are listening to how you talk about the issues and hearing that you understand and believe survivors may help them feel safer and supported.

Embrace your voice
Sexual violence thrives when it is not taken seriously and victim blaming goes unchecked.
Your voice is essential in setting the record straight on sexual violence.

Thanks to Augsburg’s Sexual Misconduct Awareness Raising Team (SMART) for their advocacy, peer education, and events to eliminate sexual violence.

Augsburg has an agreement with the Aurora Center (U of Minnesota), so students can contact them for assistance. They have a 24-Hour Helpline: (612) 626-9111. Students can also get assistance through the Center for Wellness and Counseling (CWC), 612-330-1707, and the Department of Public Safety, 612-330-1717.

Announcing the new Human Rights Forum

submitted by hermansb@augsburg.edu

Building on Augsburg University’s thirty-year history with the Nobel Peace Prize Forum and as part of our sesquicentennial celebration, Augsburg is pleased to announce the launch of the new Human Rights Forum. The event will bring together students, global changemakers, and local activists to explore innovative ways to take action in our ongoing pursuit of human rights issues globally and domestically.

The 2019 Human Rights Forum will take place at Augsburg University on October 28 and 29. It is open to the entire Augsburg community, partner schools, and the general public. The event will feature approximately 20 speakers, including six from the Human Rights Foundation roster, and include both larger plenaries, breakout, and workshop sessions.

The opening day will focus on global issues and perspectives and is developed in partnership with the Human Rights Foundation, a nonprofit that sponsors the Oslo Freedom Forum each year, both founded by Thor Halvorssen, a Venezuelan human rights activist. The Human Rights Foundation has an impressive roster of young and diverse human rights activists, and promotes and protects human rights globally within authoritarian regimes.

Our second day will feature speakers and sessions exploring racial justice, indigenous rights and environmental sustainability, with this programming developed in partnership with campus departments and centers, partner institutions, and sponsors.

There will be opportunities for Augsburg classes to attend Forum sessions during normal class periods as well as to have guest speakers visit individual classes. We welcome campus-wide engagement both in the planning process as well as during the event days.
