Confronting Privilege and Building Partnerships Through Virtual Exchange
Date
Tuesday, June 22, 2021
Time
10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (PDT)
Description

 

During “normal” times, Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students studying health promotion would “work collaboratively and engage in processes that facilitate health promotion and empowerment with community members or agencies.” These are not normal times. During COVID, collaborative engagements are being conducted virtually. College of the Rockies seized on this as an opportunity, expanding community partners involved in health promotion to include an international partner that is supporting Tanzanian women in completing secondary and post-secondary studies. BSN students participating in this collaboration not only had to navigate intercultural cross-roads to achieve their learning objectives, but also experienced interfacing with many layers of relative privilege. Please note this session is in Zoom meeting format and may require (optional) audience video/audio participation.
