Seminars: Past, Present and Future

World View seminars are focused and substantive with the goal of helping educators learn more about particular regions of the world and, in the case of the Latin America and North Carolina seminar (formerly Hispanics/Latinos in the Carolinas), about immigrant cultures and issues. We ask that, when possible, a team of at least four faculty and administrators from one school, school district, or community college attend a seminar together.

World View will send homework readings in advance of the seminar, so that, on arrival, participants will already have a working knowledge of the issues and topics to be explored more in depth at the seminar. The seminars take place at the UNC-Chapel Hill Friday Center for Continuing Education.  To learn more about specific seminars or to access program materials and speaker presentations/handouts, click on the titles, below.
