Intergenerational Spring Seminar
The Intergenerational Spring Seminar, hosted by the UUA Office at the UN aims to instill in Unitarian Universalist youth and adults a commitment to global engagement and the skills to take action locally to address global issues.
The intergenerational seminar is an opportunity to collaborate with others while learning how to be a global activist. Through workshops, peer and expert-led panel discussions, community building activities, and worship services, you will undergo a transformative process of learning, reflection, and growth while exploring some of the most challenging issues facing humanity today.
The 2022 Intergenerational Spring Seminar is expected to take place April 22-24, 2022 in New York City, continuing the "All In for Climate Justice" theme with a focus on climate-forced displacement. The UU@UN is looking forward to collaborating with the Unitarian Universalist Ministry for Earth and UUSC on this event. Stay tuned for more details forthcoming about the 2022 Intergenerational Spring Seminar!
