Applications are open for students, clubs and faculty to submit workshop proposals for the annual Social Justice Week, which will be held April 20-24. The Social Justice Committee advertised the opportunity through Schoology and emails to U-High clubs, adding that Social Justice Week allows students and faculty to learn more about social justice through a variety of events.

The deadline for the form to submit workshop proposals is Feb. 23. 

To give more flexibility for workshop activities, people submitting proposals will have the option to run either two 35-minute workshops or one 75-minute workshop, said Jimmy Yu, co-president of the Social Justice Committee.

Jimmy hopes these workshops will teach students social justice in another way, emphasizing the need for workshops.

“One of our hopes is that all students will find a workshop that they feel they would be really interested in or resonate with, and that’s a way to convey that social justice is a really broad topic and there’s many different forms of it,” Jimmy said. “When we have such a huge diversity in the kinds of workshops and what they focus on, we can allow students to see a different form, a different lens of social justice.”
