Story telling is both a social and cultural practice. Intercultural Story Circles have been used around the world by UNESCO because they are founded on two presuppositions:
- Every person has personal experience that can be shared.
- We all have something to learn from others.
Join International Students and Scholars Office (ISSO) staff who will lead participants through the practice of intercultural story circles. Listen to the intercultural stories and experiences from your peers and reflect on your own intercultural sensitivity, humility, and development. We ask all who join to be present for entire program.
This event is part of ISSO Engage. Attend 6 or more ISSO Engage programs/events to receive a special invitation to an end of the year celebration with food and prizes.
