Critical Conversations: Living Social Justice
Please join us at the University of Victoria January 23 and 24, 2012 for the Provost’s Diversity Research Forum. The planning committee is putting together an exciting and diverse program. Check back for more details in November.
Notes on the 2011 conference….
The word that attendees use to describe the 2011 conference, which took place Feb. 9-11, is inclusive. Administrators, faculty, Deans, students, staff and community members all felt welcomed. A huge thank you to all the presenters, participants, Elders, sponsors and volunteers - your engaged participation and presence made the fourth annual Provost’s Diversity Research Forum a success.
Together in diversity,
Grace Wong Sneddon, Adviser to the Provost on Equity and Diversity
If we want a beloved community, we must stand for justice, have recognition for difference without attaching difference to privilege.
