Description:

Join CIERA and Visceral Change for the third installment of a four-part equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) interactive workshop series. This workshop will take place on September 16 from 12:30pm - 2:30pm. Lunch will be available to participants in the Cafe at 12pm.

This series is made possible with the support of an LSST-DA Inclusive Collaboration Grant. The first and third workshops will be hybrid and open to the LSST community. 

This third workshop will offer an in-depth discussion around cultural competence, both globally and in the United States. This session offers discussion time to define culture, understand how we operate within it, and recognize the differences between cultural appropriation, appreciation, and humility. Participants will also look at triggers and stereotypes and explore how those actions impact one’s everyday life. Through the exploration of the topic of cultural competence, participants will gain a better understanding of how to promote inclusivity and social justice among people of all identities.

Visceral Change is an organizational development consultancy focused on EDI initiatives.

Save the date! The second workshop is scheduled for December 2.
