PBJN Summer Institute '21 - Bursts of Brilliance Lightning Talks Sign Up Form
We seek proposals for PBJN lightning talks that center dialogue and interactivity on topics related to place-based community engagement initiatives and their planning, development, programs, evaluation and impact.

Lightning talks are short, 5-10 minutes sessions that present a specific idea, project or program from the framing of storytelling. Content for these sessions do not need to present fully formed projects or initiatives but can reflect work that is in process or invite imagining together.

We encourage presenters to bring an auto-ethnographic framing to these sessions, inviting vulnerability and truth-telling in our collective learning. By centering your identities and positionally (race, gender, class, dis/ability), we hope to witness how these ideas/projects/programs have had a transformational impact on you.

We encourage presenters to prepare 2-3 discussion questions for participants. Sessions will be 30 minutes long.

***Deadline extended to Tuesday, July 6th at 5pm PST***
