Youth Equity Stewardship (YES!): Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Presented by Benjie Howard and Wade Antonio Colwell
[Recorded]
Date: Monday, May 11, 2020
Duration: 60 minutes
Here’s your opportunity to hear more from founders Benjie Howard and Wade Antonio Colwell about Youth Equity Stewardship (YES!), a sustainable, inter-generational, creative facilitation process for youth and adults that enables learning communities to enthusiastically engage and advocate for culturally responsive teaching and leading practices. YES! is rooted in arts-based methods that aim to elevate youth vision and passion to the forefront of policy and progress for an evolving twenty-first century school system. They will demonstrate how the process amplifies student partnership and supports young people in understanding their personal journey and social accountability through a "stewardship" lens that creates a living example of commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.
