CPEPR ANNUAL CONFERENCE: FROM CRISIS TO TRANSFORMATION SAN FRANCISCO, CA, APRIL 2007: The Center for Popular Education and Participatory Research (CPEPR), will be holding its annual conference on April 27 & 28, 2007. The two-day event, From Crisis To Transformation, will be held in several locations within the Mission District of San Francisco. The event will bring together popular educators, community members, and academics to discuss such issues as immigration, youth & violence, environmental justice, racial conflict, and other issues of regional, national, and global importance. A major goal for the Conference is for participants to share their work, reflect deeply, plan for further action and forge connections between others across and within fields. Friday evening's schedule includes a screening of the film Granito de Arena (Grain of Sand) to be followed by a panel/discussion around the theme of Education, Organizing and Social Transformation. Throughout the day on Saturday, workshops will be offered and a second panel/discussion on issues surrounding war and conscientious objection will be held after the evening screening of the film Soldiers of Conscience.
