Civic Engagement Workshop: First Steps With Your Project – Pitching, Design And Collaboration

Saturday, August 29, 2026
Online Event
8:00 am
This series of monthly workshops is facilitated by Global Engagement Fellows and brings student leaders together from across GHEA21 to learn from each other’s experiences, reflect on each other's work, gain insight and training, and work together on gathering material helpful for new project leaders. By bringing the effective work of student leaders to light, this series provides them with the necessary assessments, knowledge, abilities, and skills needed to ensure sustainable projects.

This month’s session focuses on building the foundation of your civic engagement project/initiative. Learn how to take the first step and initial idea into a clear project concept, develop an effective pitch, and collaborate with other leaders to turn your vision into a meaningful action. 

Facilitators: Nahida Qasimi, Adelard Borauzima, Khadija Yousufzai , Vishal Parkash , Erkaiym Zhanybekova, Roya Maliky
