    Do you feel like your activism work is wearing you down? Are you at a place where you are frustrated, tired, or burnt out? If so, this retreat is for you!


    This Social Justice Retreat is an opportunity to reflect on your own activism experience and build community with other social justice activists at UConn. We will be joined by Nobel Prize Laureate, Shirin Ebadi, who will share her experience and insights about her own journey. During this retreat, Shirin Ebadi and PeaceJam facilitators will work with students to address activism fatigue and create visions for social change.
