SUMMARY:Stats & Stanzas Lab
DESCRIPTION:Every social movement of health consequence has been backed by songs\, poems\, and dance to codify resistance\, galvanize community\, inspire imagination\, and testify for more just futures. For those of us “at the margins\,” creative modes of expression have always been critical to our learning and survival. For us\, “poetry is not a luxury” (Lorde). Poetry offers a necessary space for healing\, resistance\, and resurgence as public health continues the struggle towards health justice. It has the power to push boundaries and reimagine narratives of health equity—opening new dialogues that (re)center the voice and agency of those most burdened by social inequality. \nIn a time when LOVE *and* RESISTANCE must be simultaneous acts\, this “lab” will continue the work of illuminating the necessity of both STATS *and* STANZAS to create public health futures of radical possibility. Through engaging poetry as praxis\, we’ll explore the epistemological\, ethical\, and material imperative of remixing/reimagining public health knowledge production\, expression\, and curation practices to more fully—and unapologetically—”center the margins\,” with poetry a necessary format of health equity discourse for resistance\, refusal\, and healing. \nA space and community of/for poetic health justice at the intersections of poetry & public health\, created & curated via: \n\nReading poetry\nReading/critiquing public health literature\nWriting & workshopping poetry\nPoetry workshops w/ guest facilitators\nOpen mic nights / poetry reading events\nPoetry contests\nPoetry chapbooks\nPublishing poetry\nLectures\, panels\, & invited speakers\n\nPI (Poetic Instigator): Dr. Ryan J.

SUMMARY:PSU Faculty-Led: Mexico Travel Abroad Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Advancing Indigenous Health Equity Through Food Sovereignty\, Activism and Healing\nThis two-week immersive program in Oaxaca\, Mexico invites students to explore Indigenous health equity through land-based learning\, community engagement\, and traditional healing practices. In partnership with Spanish House MX\, participants will learn from Indigenous knowledge holders\, traditional ecological practitioners\, food sovereignty leaders\, and community activists working to advance cultural preservation and environmental stewardship. Through experiential workshops\, archaeological site visits\, and hands-on cultural activities\, students will examine the deep interconnections between land\, identity\, wellness\, and justice in Oaxacan Indigenous communities. \nThe curriculum weaves together public health\, Indigenous studies\, environmental justice\, and decolonizing methodologies. Students will participate in temazcal (traditional sweat-lodge) ceremonies\, medicinal plant workshops\, cooking classes\, artisan craft sessions\, and guided visits to Monte Albán and regional cultural centers. Academic discussions and reflective practices—grounded in Indigenous values of balance\, community\, respect\, and relationality—encourage students to critically examine colonial histories and contemporary movements for Indigenous resurgence. \nParticipants are housed in centrally located hotels in Oaxaca’s historic center and travel via private transportation for all program activities. With daily breakfast\, local coordination\, bilingual staff\, and structured reflection sessions\, the program offers a supportive environment for deep cultural learning. By the end of the experience\, students will gain new insights into Indigenous health sovereignty and develop skills that support culturally responsive\, community-centered public health practice. \nZoom Link: https://pdx.zoom.us/j/84027427294 \nREGISTER FOR INFO SESSIONS
