On April 3-4, 2014, the University of Pittsburgh will host a workshop entitled Living with Difference in a Global Society with past program directors of CEDAR—Communities Engaging with Difference and Religion, a global educational network dedicated to enabling members of disparate communities to recognize and accept their differences as they work toward a civil society. The aim of the workshop is to connect to Pittsburgh and advance CEDAR’s more than 10 years of experience in advancing a pedagogy of living with difference as a response to the challenges of conflict and globalization. The public is invited to an Open Forum presentation and discussion.

Co-sponsored by the Global Studies Center, the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences Office of the Provost, and CEDAR—Communities Engaging with Difference and Religion.
