USING COMMUNICATION TO FOSTER NON-VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN: A
GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE
2:00 - 3:30 p.m.
Room M114

Guest Presenters:
Gloria Lopez, University of Madrid, Complutense
Hope Jolles, Humanist Center of Cultures, Elmhurst Communication Project

Ms. Lopez and Ms. Jolles are scholars and community activists who have
dedicated their life to addressing the all important issue of violence
perpetrated against women, youth and persons of color. They have both
worked to raise the consciousness and awareness of students and
community residents of the far reaching effects of violence, and have
organized community efforts to eradicate violent behavior. Ms. Jolles,
a local activist, will share some of her experiences working in the
Elmhurst Communication Project here in Queens, while Ms. Lopez will
share her insights and experiences around some of the intricacies and
challenges of galvanizing students at the University of Madrid. Both
will address how they have used tools of effective communication to
build relationships and to bring down some of the common barriers that
may foster negative interactions that can escalate to violence.

This is the first workshop in a planned series of presentations that
will allow the Student Center for Women and the LaGuardia Community to
become more aware of some of the international concerns facing women.
Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to attend.

This workshop is presented in recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness
Month.
