 The Annual Global Well-Being and Social Change Conference provides a platform from which experts share their knowledge and offer training for agents of social change. Each year, the conference brings together faculty, students, staff, and community practitioners from around the world and across disciplines to learn together ways to advance global social justice and human rights. Despite this annual conference, students also present their research and glean knowledge from experts in the field.
