[PAST EVENT] Antiracism Curriculum Training: How we continue the work in the face of challenges
Access & Features
- Registration/RSVP
Over the last few years, educators have been caught in the crosshairs of the global health crisis, racial uprisings and identity politics requiring the skill to actively engage personally, professionally and socially in conflict arising from difference.
In this interactive learning session, use your voice to practice strategies to sustain conversations about difference and antiracism in education. Critically self-reflect on who you are, your values, beliefs, and background. Direct your attention to your personal sphere of influence, and the knowledge you possess to implement the pedagogical moves and make curricular decisions to support the creation of identity-safe classroom and office spaces.
