The Cesar Chavez Convocation is an annual event at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) during the month of May in order to commemorate Cesar Chavez and his legacy. Every year a keynote speaker is invited to partake in the convocation to honor Cesar Chavez by relating social justice issues to the Hispanic and Latino community on campus. The convocation creates a space where students can have dialogue about engaging with social justice issues and leadership. This annual event is organized largely by the Chicano/Latino Resource Center, also known as El Centro and students of UC Santa Cruz. The convocation provides understanding of democratic process and on how students can become evolved while acknowledging current social issues. This event is open to the Santa Cruz community and it is free of charge. ==Rosie Cabrera and Jose Olivas== Rosie Cabrera director of the Chicano Latino Resource Center and Jose Olivas a MECHA member have worked together in partnership of the Cesar Chavez Convocation for the last ten years. Jose was an undergraduate student at UCSC who was impacted by the death of Cesar Chavez. For this reason Jose sought for the campus to commemorate Cesar Chavez, at first by naming College 8 a college within University of California, Santa Cruz after Cesar. But this idea was minimized due to the lack of funding and donors. The partnership then began when Jose approached Rosie and proposed this idea that focused on how Chicano Latino people on campus can come together in a space characterized by leadership and social justice. At this point they already had a model from the Martin Luther King convocation, however, the essence for the Cesar Chavez Convocation would be different due to the different histories. When Rosie worked at (Education Opportunity Program (EOP)at UCSC ) she noticed existing traditions already established, she comes from that sensibility and understanding that community is built by establishing traditions. To further enhance the envisioned Cesar Chavez Convocation she added the insight in community building. Coming together as one in order to celebrate and commemorate not just Cesar Chavez but also one another. Her sentiments were to see if this was viable if it is viable then it is a partnership that can be built.
