Race Work for the Next Round: Building Antiracist Colleges & Universities – February 8, 2021
|
Date & Time |
Monday, February 8, 2021 • 2:00 – 3:30 pm ET |
Overview |
Breaking down barriers to success, while creating a more liberated and inclusive environment, has never been more important than it is right now. In order for institutions to perform and produce at their highest potential, diversity, equity and inclusion work must be done with intentionality and understanding. The current state of race and systemic racism in higher education requires your attention if your institution is going to move forward with a commitment to become more antiracist.
Gather your colleagues, and join our expert presenters — Dr. Jamie Washington, Dr. Beth Douthirt Cohen and Dr. becky martinez from The Washington Consulting Group — as they engage participants in this critical conversation on the current state of race and systemic racism in higher education and what’s next for race in 2021 and beyond.
You’ll walk away with thoughts from these experts on what they see as opportunities, challenges and concerns that you should consider in moving forward to maintain your commitment so you and your colleagues can actively and strategically act as active agents of change from whatever seat you occupy.
Registration: $399*
*After you place your order, you will receive instructions for additional log ins for your remote team members. In addition, 24 hours following the live webinar we will email you a digital link and instructions to access the on-demand recording and materials that you may share with any staff members that were unable to attend the live event.
