Writing That Changes the World

About the Event

Friday, January 17
6-7 pm ET

virtual event; open to all mentees, mentors & members

Writing That Changes the World shows how the written word can be used in service of real life social issues. In this studio, we will read mentor texts, learn various styles of journalistic writing, consider how other media can be used in advocacy work, and even start our own pieces of advocacy journalism. Bring your creativity, enthusiasm, and energy to the table!

It can be tough to break into the traditional journalism outlets. This month, we’ll briefly touch upon these barriers to entry, and discuss the other avenues that exist for using our writing to effect change, from educational flyers to social media posts and more.
