Creating an environment that is inclusive of all students requires thought and effort. This workshop, hosted by Graduate Studies, provides faculty with guidance on how to create an anti-racist community through awareness, discussion, transparency, advocacy, and new practices. Participants will learn new leadership skills necessary to create equity in student groups. These skills can help graduate students experience increased feelings of belonging, a deeper commitment to their field, and a greater sense of independence. Creating an inclusive culture can also bring new insights and improve research innovations and outcomes.
