The UCI Humanities Commons is participating in Write to Change the World, a series of workshops for humanities faculty by the OpEd Project. The workshops will build UC faculty's capacity to translate their research for the public. The OpEd Project is a community of journalists and thought leaders who actively share their skills, resources and connections to train underrepresented experts to take thought leadership positions in their fields. The Humanities Commons will provide travel and lodging funding for UCI humanities faculty selected to participate in a workshop.
