    Law School Staff - Team Building and Communication Workshop

    We here at UConn PD believe a safe community begins with cooperation and a deeply held belief that we can work together to solve the issues we face. Communication, cooperation, planning, empathy, and respect are just a few of the elements that a community needs to be safe and thrive. To this end, we are proud to offer an immersive Teambuilding and Communication Workshop that allows participants to explore and
    learn both as individuals and as a group. These workshops feature a variety of games and group
    initiative projects that are specifically designed to allow participants to explore their group and themselves.
    Focus is placed on problem solving, interpersonal and group communication skills, leadership traits, organizational processes, adventurous daring-do, productive silliness and more.

    One of the core concepts of experiential learning is challenge of choice. We learn most when we step outside of our comfort zones, but positively reinforced learning stops when we enter a panic zone. All of the activities we include in our program are structured and sequenced in a manner that allows participants to learn and grow while acknowledging that each element of every activity might not be for every individual. We will encourage everyone to participate past their comfort zone and into an area of true exploration while
    empowering participants to help guide their own adventure.

    Risk, Insurance and the Welfare State

    At the core of the modern welfare state is the institution of social insurance, which provides event-conditioned benefits through a publicly orchestrated system of contributions and distribution. At the core of the modern welfare state is the institution of social insurance, which provides event-conditioned benefits through a publicly orchestrated system of contributions and distribution. Tracing an intellectual history of the practice from the time of the French Revolution through the present, this talk offers an account of how and why social insurance became one of the central policy tools of wealthy democracies. This history reveals that the way in which risk is conceived and calculated has important consequences for the design of social policy. It also shows that the capacity of social insurance to accommodate a plurality of normative principles and aims helps to account for its prominence and political resilience as an institution.

    Professor Friedman’s book, Probable Justice: Risk, Insurance, and the Welfare State (Chicago: 2020) is available for those interested in reading further.
