Dear Colleagues,
With the spring semester and winter quarter well under way, we invite you to continue the momentum from January’s new year’s resolutions into February with several opportunities to engage with Diversity Abroad. Additionally, February marks the celebration of Black History Month in the United States, which recognizes the achievements of Black American champions who have inspired others to achieve success. We have highlighted several resources from our archives to help you explore ways to support Black students and colleagues.
This newsletter offers a brief overview of options through Diversity Abroad to support your pursuit in acquiring knowledge, skills, and confidence to advance diversity and inclusive excellence. We hope to be able to connect with you through one — or many — of the opportunities listed below! Continue reading for more information.
