The Center for West European Studies and the European Union Center of Excellence at the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies are pleased to present: Europe Caught Between Austerity & Growth: Which Way Out of the Crisis? 2012 Teacher Workshop for Middle School, High School, and Community College Educators Wednesday, August 22, 2012 9:30am - 4:00pm 317 Thomson Hall Fueled by a crisis in confidence that southern Europe and Ireland cannot manage their growing debt, the financial crisis in Europe continues to be a global concern. Austerity and growth are the two economic policies most frequently forwarded to Europe¹s ongoing problems. In August, the Center for West European Studies and the European Union Center of Excellence partner on an educator workshop designed to introduce teachers to ongoing debates on the best way forward for Europe. Teachers will learn about where the crisis came from, how it is impacting Europeans and what possible solutions exist to balance austerity and growth. The summer teacher workshop seeks to demonstrate ways in which educators can then frame these debates for students in their classrooms. The workshop includes 6 clock hours, parking, teaching materials and lunch at the University of Washington Faculty club. Participants must attend for the full six hours to receive clock hours. Preference is given to full-time teachers. Registrations are due no later than August 15, 2012. A limited number of travel grants are available to eligible teachers to help defray transportation and/or lodging costs for those who attend from outside the Seattle Metro area. Please check the box below for more information about the availability of these travel grants. These opportunities are made possible by generous grants from the US Department of Education and the Delegation of the European Union to the USA.
