Overview of class

In Civic Engagement you'll learn how to change systems for social good. You will learn how change is possible, through a combination of long-term organizing and mass mobilization to make small incremental wins that build over time. This is not a class about doing good individually (charity), providing a service to clients (consulting), or community tourism, but working with others to build grassroots teams and organizations that can develop policy proposals and mobilize supporters to influence civic institutions.

This course will be of interest to public policy students implement in doing real-world policy implementation, students interested in learning effective civic engagement and organizing skills, and those interested in social change.
