Gatekeeping: Understanding Our Individual Power in Supporting Equity
October 6, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
As we work toward equity in the academy, one way to make change is to identify and examine the gatekeepers– what gates do students or faculty have to pass through to achieve the success they are seeking? Who is let in, and who is left out of leadership positions, research awards, PhD programs, and faculty positions and promotions?
Join us for this workshop, led by presenter Morgain MacDonald, to:
- Identify policies, practices, etc. that prevent or encourage diverse groups when accessing your organization
- Identify how everyone within the organization has power and influence over gatekeeping
- Identify personal and organizational action steps to increase access
Light refreshments will be available outside of the Vandenberg Room mid workshop.
