Description

Check out this video to watch the 2023-2024 Adventure Learning Grant Recipients.

Fairhaven’s Adventure Learning Grant (ALG) recipients share their experiences in Latin America and Europe. Their experiences include themes of environment, solidarity, homelessness, addiction, and social justice.

The World Issues Forum series is free and open to the public. Talks are held at 12:00pm in Fairhaven College Auditorium. The Fairhaven Auditorium is on the top floor of the Fairhaven College main building to the rear (east) side. If you enter from the west entrance (halfway between the second and third floor facing parking lot 12A), take the half-flight of stairs to the left and continue to east side of the building from there. You'll see the door to the auditorium a little to your left.

Join us at WWU or online on Zoom!

World Issues Forum updates are available online.
