On this professional Development Seminar, educators will analyze the enduring legacy of colonialism, consider the responsibility to understand the dynamics of colonialism, and study the strategies being employed to decolonize and reconstruct more just communities. The program will also address the roles that international organizations and committed individuals have played in addressing systems of domination and defending the rights of Indigenous peoples in Guatemala. Activities include travel to the highlands to visit with Indigenous communities; dialogues with women about gender roles in a changing society; visits to schools; and participation in a Mayan religious ceremony.
