ASEE MIND: A Guide to Organizing and Hosting Inclusive Events
Description
Last October, a group of researchers, educators and diversity experts met at Clemson for the working conference entitled, “Who’s Not at the Table?: Building Research Capacity for Underserved Communities in Engineering”. This webinar is a “don’t-miss” for anyone considering hosting a meeting, workshop, conference, or other event!
Conference organizers Julie Martin, Shannon Stefl, and Amy Slaton share what they learned about hosting an inclusive event. Webinar participants will gain ideas for setting meeting “norms” that promote a culture of trust, planning considerations for making events fully accessible to people having disabilities, budgetary necessities, and effective ways to promote networking among and full participation among attendees.,
This webinar is hosted by WEPAN (wepan.org) in conjunction with the ASEE Minorities in Engineering Division.
