Conferences & Speaking Engagements

Bring Project Ava To Your Conference

Project Ava seeks to bring awareness to structures of privilege specifically in media. Our workshops are intended for participants to understand the true power of their own stories and voice. Through sharing personal experiences, participants will gain a better understanding of their identity, their community, and the impact that their stories can have on self-empowerment, social issues, and the advocacy community.

Past Engagements

Project Ava representatives have presented at a number conferences as workshop facilitators, panelists, and speakers with up to 100 attendees from high school, college, and young professionals. We aim to provide a unique experience for the attendees of each event that is custom-tailored for the goals and mission of that conference.

Seeking Opportunities to Present

Project Ava welcomes opportunities to present for conferences and seminars with similar missions for which we can further enhance attendee experience and equip them with tools for social justice and advocacy. Our workshops and presentations center around the following themes:
