On Thursday, the UNMC community is invited to this month’s “Conversations for Inclusive Excellence,” which will review, discuss and recap information gleaned from the past six sessions.
Sheritta Strong, MD, director of inclusion, will host the discussion, which runs from 2 to 3 p.m. Zoom links can be accessed via the campus calendar or via the Engage website. Attendees will review such content as cultural humility, adverse childhood experiences, building inclusive cultures, and combatting racism and place-ism. In addition, attendees will have an opportunity to share reflections in a large group setting.
Sponsored by the UNMC Office of Inclusion, “Conversations for Inclusive Excellence” allow participants to engage in meaningful and, at times, uncomfortable conversations to co-create understanding. Participants also gain tools to continue the dialogue within their departments and offices. The sessions, which take place on the second Thursday of every month, challenge participants and the assumptions we all make consciously and unconsciously.
