Partnership = Community Empowerment: UK & US Trailblazers

Featuring insight from Austin, TX and London, UK, this session will explore examples of community engagement in the pursuit of equitable education for all. The panel will contrast three different but complementary examples - significant investment in physical infrastructure (a professional-grade Art Gallery, and state-of-the-art radio/podcast studios), educational interventions tailored to a niche demographic (women prisoners), and a convergence of space-based and curricular takes on sustainability - as part of a broader exploration of community education on both sides of the Atlantic.
