Metropolitan Richmond Dialogues
An intensive weekend dialogue for people seeking to become better public policy advocates.
Dialogues for Change Building Trust Across Divides of Race, Class and Culture
Come and join us for Hope in the Cities’ series of strategic dialogues on metropolitan Richmond issues. Highly trained facilitators will lead a retreat for 25 participants over a 10 hour period. The dialogues will address two critical questions: •How can the region reconcile longstanding historical and cultural differences that undermine trust, breed caution and prevent needed initiatives? •How can the region engage a new generation of emerging leaders in designing and implementing a compelling regional vision for the 21st Century? The curriculum is based on both an academic and experiential learning model. The focus is on enhanced regional cooperation with an emphasis on understanding historical events that have led to present realities. Ultimately participants will learn to build collaborative strategies to take our region into the future.
Dates: July 17-18 (Friday 6 pm - 9 pm, Saturday 9 am - 4 pm)
October 16-17 (Friday 6 pm - 9pm, Saturday 9 am - 4 pm)
Cost: $75 (scholarships are available)
