DESCRIPTION:UC ANR Hispanic Heritage Month 2025 Webinar Series\n“A Celebration of Our Dignity\, Our Legacy\, Our Voice / We Belong. We Build. We Rise.” \nShould Latino Farmworkers Be at the Center of UC ANR’s Work?\n*This webinar will be conducted in Spanish and simultaneously interpreted in English. \nGuest: Ofelia Lichtenheld – Agave producer & member of California’s Women Agave Growers Collective. \nOfelia Lichtenheld is a Latina farmer who has carved out a space in the male-dominated world of agriculture. She grows olives\, fruit trees\, and agave\, blending tradition with innovation to create new opportunities for women producers. As a founding member of California’s Women Agave Growers Collective\, she is helping to build a legacy rooted in sustainability and community leadership. \nGuest: Claudia Quezada – Environmental Justice Coordinator\, Líderes Campesinas \nClaudia Quezada is an advocate with Líderes Campesinas\, one of California’s most influential grassroots organizations supporting farmworker women. She brings years of experience in environmental justice and community organizing\, working directly with Latinas to provide pathways into farming\, as well as programs for advocacy\, health\, and safety. Her work amplifies the voices of women who often remain invisible in agriculture. \nWhy This Matters\nHispanic Heritage Month is more than a celebration — it is a recognition of resilience\, contribution\, and the ongoing work to create a more inclusive future. These conversations invite reflection\, learning\, and connection across cultures and disciplines. \nMark your calendars and register today!\nREGISTER HERE or scan the QR code below. \nFor more information\, please contact:\nRicardo Vela\, rvela@ucanr.edu\, 951-660-9887 URL:https://link.ucop.edu/event/should-latino-farmworkers-be-at-the-center-of-uc-anrs-work/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251008T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251008T113000 DTSTAMP:20260403T142831 CREATED:20241210T195101Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241223T184010Z UID:10011015-1759919400-1759923000@link.ucop.edu SUMMARY:BRC - Procure to Pay Office Hours DESCRIPTION: URL:https://link.ucop.edu/event/brc-procure-to-pay-office-hours/2025-10-08/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251008T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251008T110000 DTSTAMP:20260403T142831 CREATED:20241022T185402Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241022T185402Z UID:10010412-1759917600-1759921200@link.ucop.edu SUMMARY:BRC T&E Team Office Hours DESCRIPTION:Have a travel or travel reimbursement-related question?
