Merced to host virtual humanities research workshop

  • 2021-02-26
The online Research Methods: Story Telling and Public Scholarship workshop is set to take place next month in Merced.

This March event is a part of the Community Engaged Humanities Research Workshop series. The special guests of the event, Isaac Rivera and Lizbeth de la Cruz Santana, will discuss the Playas de Tijuana Mural Project and the Humanizing Deportation Project and the associated ethics.

The Henry Luce Foundation and the University of California Merced are the organizers of the workshop series. The Henry Luce Foundation presents university students and graduates with a variety of opportunities in the form of programs, grants, and scholarships to advance their careers after studying.

Participants of these events who are studying or have studied humanities qualify for a summer Luce fellowship application.

Individuals who are eligible to sign up for the Merced event include staff or faculty members of the University of California, graduates, students, postdoctoral researchers, and individuals who are simply interested in the topic. Registration is entirely free and can be completed online to receive access to the event’s Zoom link. When organizing virtual events, the hosts often utilize flyer printing to post printouts that detail webinar information, times, and dates for anyone who wishes to register.

The webinar is scheduled to begin on Monday, March 8 at 10:30 am and conclude at 12:00 pm.
