Description

The Fitz Center for Leadership in Community at the University of Dayton is dedicated to cultivating servant leaders and fostering just communities through reciprocal partnerships and engaged learning. Central to this mission are the Ethics and Leadership Initiative and the Dayton Civic Scholars programs, both designed to equip students with the necessary skills and ethical frameworks for effective civic engagement. This poster delves into the integration of ethics and leadership training in preparing students for civic engagement. By examining the structure, content, and outcomes of these programs, we aim to highlight best practices and underscore the importance of embedding ethical and leadership development in higher education to cultivate effective civic professionals.
