Professional Conference: Second Annual DEIB in Action Conference

Thank you for your interest in attending Goodwin University's Second Annual DEIB in Action Conference. This year’s focus, Engaging the Work Within Our Organizations and Across Our Democracy, offers you the opportunity to learn about groundbreaking research, insights, and work with a diverse audience of professionals from various sectors.
The conference aims to offer a dynamic range of sessions that highlight best practices and practical applications of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) across our democracy, with a specific focus on the classroom, workplace, and organizational environments.
Conference presentations, workshops, discussions, and panels showcase how organizations and institutions are actively examining and integrating DEIB principles into their cultures, values, policies, behaviors, physical environments, and community relationships. This conference will serve as a platform for participants to engage with content that demonstrates real-world applications of DEIB practices and fosters meaningful conversations.
Additionally, specific presentations will also explore the intersection of DEIB and democracy. Presenters will introduce strategies, programs, and initiatives, or facilitate thought-provoking discussions on the impact of democracy on marginalized and intersecting identities. This focus underscores the crucial role of DEIB in strengthening democratic values and building inclusive communities.
Participants will walk away with actionable examples of activities, initiatives, and strategies that can lead to immediate and sustained change.
