CURRENT OPPORTUNITIES
Practice the Practice: Experiential Education for Religious Professionals
Do you want to have a deeper understanding of how to lead justice-centered experiential education programming? Do you want to create relationships with a cohort of like-minded religious professionals and have your own experiential education opportunity?
Join us in early 2024 as we run the first cohort of Practice the Practice! This program will involve four online gatherings over the span of four months, with small group check-ins in between. It will culminate in a 4-5 day immersion learning program where we can practice and analyze what we’ve learned.
World Human Rights Day Teach-In
Join us for a World Human Rights Day teach in as we honor the 75th anniversary of the signing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights!
Together we will learn about the context of its creation, grieve the on-going violations of these rights, and commit to global solidarity practices that bring us closer to the promise of world where the worth, dignity, and power of everyone is respected. Human Rights organizers, scholars, and advocates will guide us through an essential time of learning and grounding.

UU@UN Intergenerational Spring Seminar 2023
April 1-3, 2023
This year’s theme was Demilitarization & Abolition: Resist Policing and Empire. Given this theme, we wanted to learn from movement leaders in Minneapolis and global partners who have been on the front lines of resisting police and empire.
Keynote: Andrea Ritchie, co-author of No More Police (with Mariame Kaba)
The intergenerational seminar is an opportunity to collaborate with others while learning how to be a global activist. Through workshops, peer and expert-led panel discussions, community building activities, and worship services, participants will undergo a transformative process of learning, reflection, and growth while exploring some of the most challenging issues facing humanity today.
