The Uehiro Academy co-sponsors event on Microdemocracy: A New Vision for Strengthening our Communities and our Democracy

Luz Santana, co-founder of the Right Question Institute discussed how the “Right Question Strategy” that she and colleagues developed over the past two decades, can greatly increase the capacity of people in low-income communities to advocate for themselves and participate effectively in key decisions that affect them. A contributor to the Harvard education publishing blog, Luz will shared her own experiences navigating systems and facing challenges, as well stories from the field that inform the theory and practice of Microdemocracy and the Right Question Strategy.

This event was co-sponsored by the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa’s Uehiro Academy for Philosophy and Ethics in Education, UHM Spark Matsunaga Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution, UHM Access–Advising, Community, and Civic Engagement in the Social Sciences, and Ceeds of Peace.
