About the Partnership
The Change Network Minnesota leadership program is delivered by a bold and ambitious partnership between the Cultural Wellness Center and the Public and Nonprofit Leadership Center at the University of Minnesota's Humphrey School of Public Affairs, supported by the Bush Foundation. Our organizations have spent many years in a co-learning relationship about institutional change, culture, race, and capacity development. Via this program, our organizations and people bring their best selves to the work.
For this cohort leadership program, the Cultural Wellness Center and the Public and Nonprofit Leadership Center will bring together two systems of knowledge, and we will present the fullness of each framework. The two distinct knowledge systems represent two ways of knowing. One knowledge system comes from an academic approach to education where knowledge is generated through research and practice. The other knowledge system comes from a culturally embedded approach to education that is based in the experiential and organic knowledge gained in the specifics of living. Participants of the Change Network Minnesota program will benefit and co-learn with us.
