Building Structural Equity: National Networks' Role in Promoting Justice Panel Discussion

published Apr 13, 2021 3:35pm

ASCN and SEISMIC are co-hosting a panel on "Building Structural Equity: National Networks' Role in Promoting Justice." The purpose of this panel is to provide an opportunity for SEISMIC and ASCN members, particularly those in leadership roles, to learn from other national networks about how organizations themselves can promote justice. Panelists will be discussing, "What is the role of national organizations like ours in promoting equity and justice in higher education?"

We will be joined by Dr. Shirley Malcom from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) STEMM Equity Achievement (SEA) Change, Dr. Stanley Lo from the Society for the Advancement of Biology Education Research (SABER), and Dr. Tabbye Chavous from the National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID). Following the panel discussion, we will organize various working sessions for SEISMIC and ASCN to incorporate the knowledge gained into the work of our respective organizations.
