ECO Leadership Practicum

CO Leadership Practicum: creating just and sustainable communities
The rationale for this course is to cultivate a leadership learning community and network of individuals that can lead groups in educating to counter oppressions and creating just and sustainable communities (ECO). We will explore best practices for meeting management, community structures, and workshop/study-group facilitation that encourage equity, engagement, and consent. Each participant will design, deliver, and refine a learning experience that integrates ECO approaches to creating just and sustainable communities.
This course is synchronous, interactive, and informed by transformative facilitation, liberating structures, and group equity praxis. Students will be expected to complete readings, reflections, discussions, and peer coaching sessions that support their practicum development. Participants that have not completed Leadership Along the Way will have additional pre-work to complete in advance of week 2.
Relates to SKSM Thresholds 1, 2, 6, & 7, and MFC Comps 3, 4, 5, & 7.
