UW Resilience Lab: A World of Strength

Please join us for a UW Resilience Lab event about cross-cultural understandings of resilience, A World of Strength: International Students and Cultural Resilience. The event will be held on Wednesday, May 18, 5-7 p.m. in Alder Auditorium. International students will share stories of stamina, strength and ultimately success in the face of adversity from their home cultures and at the UW. We’ll also have opportunities for participants to reflect on what resilience means in their own story and context. Join us to learn about cultural strategies for success and expand your understanding of resilience. Free and open to the UW community; we invite and encourage any student (international or domestic) as well as faculty and staff to come and share their perspectives. This event is co-presented by International and English Language Programs, Housing and Food Services, and FIUTS.

Please help us spread the word with the attached flier and the Facebook event (https://www.facebook.com/events/100456407037851/), and consider coming yourself!
