After a successful first Tri-Campus DEI Forum in autumn 2021 around the theme of Community, volunteers from the 91探花Professional Staff Organization (PSO) and departments across UW鈥檚 three campuses are once again joining together to organize and facilitate a virtual 2-half-day Diversity Equity Inclusion (DEI) Forum, this time focused on Action. The DEI Forum is developed by staff, for staff, but open to faculty and students as well. It will take place via Zoom on April 20-21, 2022.
The goal of the event is to create an intersectional space for those interested in advocating for equity to come together to share ideas, network, and build coalitions to advance anti-racism and social justice efforts across 91探花and beyond. This includes intersecting aspects of identity such as race, ability, age, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and religion.
through the Whole U.
We also encourage 91探花employees and community members with a connection to 91探花who are doing DEI work in this area to . Proposals that are action-oriented and interactive are particularly sought!
