DESCRIPTION:The Spring 2025 GSS-SAGGSA Colloquium Series\n	Social Pedagogy f
 or Building Sustainable Resilience with Dispossessed Communities\n	Presente
 d by Dean Venkatesh at the Florida International University\n\nIn this pre
 sentation\, ´ó·˘˛ĘƱƽ̨'s Faculty of Education Dean\, Professor Vivek Venkatesh
  advances the foundations of a theory of social pedagogy within a framewor
 k grounded in humanism and community co-creation. He outlines his pessimis
 tic unease regarding the accelerating impact of identity politics on a for
 m of social justice that has become uninspiring\, narcissistic\, and vapid
 . The collective apathy toward the deleterious effects of structural and s
 ystemic societal imbalances has exacerbated existing intolerances and incr
 eased polarization. \n\nPartisan politics\, which thrive on highly divisiv
 e debates\, catalyze the abuse and erosion of public trust through various
  disinformation campaigns\, resulting in the dismantling of the democratic
  functioning of our shared society. Nevertheless\, by standing with and am
 plifying the voices of his highly capable community allies\, Vivek’s team 
 of researchers\, community organizers\, artists\, and policy experts at Pr
 oject SOMEONE and the UNESCO Chair in Prevention of Radicalization and Vio
 lent Extremism seek to refocus and reimagine the humanistic ideals of soci
 al cohesion. \n\nProfessor Venkatesh presents examples of a range of arts 
 and community initiatives that enable his partners to own and revolutioniz
 e their own understanding— as well as the collective understanding— of wha
 t it means to create pluralistic platforms for dialogue. These initiatives
  aim to combat the rhetoric of division and pave the way for restoring the
  principles of an inclusive society.\n\nApril 10\, 2025\n	3:30 PM to 5:00 P
