The Catharine S. Eberly Center for Women is seeking undergraduate students to apply for a two-year social change leadership program.

Changemakers in Action, Leadership and Learning is an experiential learning experience that allows students to apply their academic coursework while strengthening their leadership and professional skills. Students are encouraged to coordinate their internship, practicum or co-op in their field of study with the leadership program.

“The feminist-theory-based program aims to build community by addressing contemporary human rights struggles and promoting equity in the world,” said Danielle Stamper, the center’s program manager for gender equity student initiatives.

To be eligible for the program, students need to have two years of coursework remaining in their undergraduate degree program. Ideal candidates will have a passion for addressing social justice issues and advancing gender equity through activism.

The 2020-22 cohort is set to begin in October. Applications due Sunday, Oct. 4.
