The Diversity Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Advocates Fellowship is designed to support participants to deepen their confidence and competence in bringing issues of DEI and belonging into teams, organizations, programs, and relationships. Engaging in anti-oppression conversations within organizations, either 1:1 or in groups, can be difficult. Our aim is to use this space to learn from each other and unlearn together, and to support each other to become more skilled and confident in advocating for more equity in our contexts.
Is this for me? This fellowship is a great place if you have engaged in the topics of DEI, oppression, liberation, decolonization, power, and related others, and would now like to discuss and practice with your peers from similar contexts and roles how to more consistently advocate for equity.
