    Crisis Response in the Modern Media Environment: Imagining, Building, and Communicating Humanitarian Shelter Solutions in a Connected World at Brooklyn College’s Graduate Center for Worker Education

    Brooklyn College's Graduate Center for Worker Education

    ABOUT:

    ​Brooklyn College's Dept. of Television, Radio & Emerging Media, working with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the US Agency for International Development (USAID), have organized a one-day conference open to all students, alum, faculty, and staff across NYC and surrounding colleges and universities who are interested in learning about career, internship, and research opportunities available in the international humanitarian field.

    ​One of IOM's missions is to build and maintain shelter for displaced populations worldwide. Expertise in many disciplines--architecture, engineering, design, media and communication, international relations, sustainability, and many others — is required to successfully carry out this crucial work.

    ​If you would like to know more about IOM, and about how your interest and expertise can help IOM fulfill its mission, please register to be part of this free one-day conference/workshop on Nov. 1st at 25 Broadway in lower Manhattan. Find out more about the opportunities available and brainstorm ways to assist in IOM's communications and media outreach. Lunch is provided and space is limited so please register early.

    AID YOGA
    November 14, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

    Aid Yoga

    Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs 2546 Belmont Ave, Bronx, NY, United States

    Aid Yoga© is an all-levels yoga class designed to teach students about stretching and relaxation poses and how to use these skills on and off the mat. Yoga is a physical practice that goes beyond teaching students how to move according to their comfort zones. This kind of workout teaches students how to regain control of their breathing, how to trust themselves, how to create a safe space, and how to cope with a stressful event. The purpose of hosting Aid Yoga© at the Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs (IIHA) is two fold: to provide a free, community event that benefits the mind and body of the students while also giving them tools to take with them into the humanitarian field or in life. The class structure will build onto itself and have a theme so that the more classes a student joins, the more they will advance, learn, and improve their practice. No class will be the same.
