There is no better place to look carefully at immigration, in its broadest sense, than here in the city referred to as “The Crossroads of the World”, and especially at City College, an institution that has been educating immigrant students for more than 100 years. The CCNY School of Education is excited to bring together students, educators, community members and politicians from NYC and beyond to address this timely and important topic.
Please consider being part of this event!
Submit a proposal for a workshop or presentation today.
The CCNY School of Education invites teachers, youth workers, community organizers, university faculty,
students, school administrators, policy-makers, community members, and immigrants to share their expertise. Conference organizers are seeking proposals for workshops and presentations that fit within the conference theme: Envisioning Schools, Communities and Policies of Acceptance.
Proposals may focus on areas related to schooling of immigrant students; teaching the topic of immigration; advocacy and immigration support information; immigration policies and laws that impact students and their families; regional and global immigration issues; and many other related topics.
