| Description: | The Annette Strauss Institute for Civic Life, KLRU-TV, Austin PBS and KUT 90.5 FM host a community conversation exploring the effects of changing demographics on civic participation in Central Texas. "Why Bother? Engaging Our Changing City" is the second event in a yearlong news and public dialogue series.
KUT News reporter Joy Diaz hosts the event. Juan Castillo, senior reporter for the Austin American-Statesman, will share recent demographic trends in Austin from the 2010 census. Chantel Bottoms, senior research analyst at Community Action Network, will present voter turnout data for Travis County. Participants will then join small roundtable discussions to explore how to expand community engagement as the city continues to grow and change.
This community event is organized in partnership with Austin Community College's Center for Public Policy and Political Studies. |
