Letting the Community In
with the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library

A perspective from the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library, North Carolina, USA

Join us for this international webinar and gain inspiration and a fresh perspective to bring to your future projects. When Branch Leader, Hannah Terrell and Community Partnerships Leader, Martha Yesowitch began the Engage2020 project, little could have prepared them for seismic societal changes that lay ahead, in the form of Covid-19 pandemic and the issues drawn to the fore by the Black Lives Matter movement. Using the Engage2020 project as a case study, Hannah and Martha will explore good practice for engaging audiences successfully and reflect on how to make the library a safe forum for community conversation and expression. Find out how they adopted a “history in the making” approach and gave young people a voice for their lived experience.
