Join CWA

Through our partnerships with campus and community groups, and the generous time and effort of our volunteers, we're able to create enlightening content available to all.

There are many ways to get involved with the CWA year-round or during conference week. The CWA program committee is composed of CU students, faculty, staff and Boulder community members who volunteer their time to consider the crucial issues of the day, research candidates for CWA and create exciting panels that will challenge our audiences.

We’re looking for volunteers to join the program committee, which identifies speakers and plans CWA 2025.
