Bard Center for Environmental Policy presents
National Climate Seminar: Common Threat, Common Ground
Liz Joyner, The Village Square
Wednesday, November 2, 2016
On November 2nd, join Liz Joyner, Executive Director at The Village Square, for a discussion about cross-partisan conversation. Joyner will highlight strategies to step successfully outside of our comfort zones to engage in political and social discourse. "It's both impossible and mandatory [to building a reconnected social civic community]. Impossible, because every broad trend is moving in the opposite direction, and mandatory, because it’s hard to imagine how American democracy survives if we can’t talk to each other about what matters.” --Liz Joyner
Joyner holds a BS in Psychology from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and an MSW. She has professional experience as an inpatient psychiatric social worker as well as running City Commissioner Allan Katz's re-election campaign.
