CZI Movement & Capacity Building Opportunities

Dear Partners,

 

We are pleased to share with you our October capacity building offerings. We are thrilled to bring back Cultivate Strategies to run two sessions this month, one on understanding your organization's tech stack* and the other on online audience engagement. We will close out this year with Dara Silverman who will be running two sessions on navigating conflict in the workplace. 

 

If you would like to attend a CZI community session and need ASL or Spanish interpretation, please let us know at least 7 days prior to the session at capacitybuilding@chanzuckerberg.com. 

 

You can always access past CZI recorded sessions on our Wistia page.

 

If you were forwarded this email, you can fill out this form to receive future invitations directly.

 

Sincerely,

The Movement & Capacity Building Team
