Note: Global Inclusion: Translating ‘DEI’ Where You Are is a session for current study abroad students.
Many of you are halfway into your study abroad programs, congratulations on having made it this far! We hope that you continue to have enriching experiences, gain new knowledge, and expand your worldviews.
Before departing on your trip, you may remember having participated in a pre-departure orientation where you broadly explored identity, intercultural competence, power privilege and positionality and growth and comfort zones. We’re writing today to invite you to a follow-up session, “Global Inclusion: Translating ‘DEI’ Where You Are.” In this session we will go further into depth on how identities are perceived and power and positionality, focusing on these paradigms from points of view outside of the US based on what you have all observed and lived while abroad.
The session will take place via Zoom on September 19th, at 8 am EST time (14:00 hours Central European Time). Please register by September 17th via Engaged: A zoom link will be sent out to participants the day before the workshop.
