What does it mean to center equity and justice in environmental work?

The EarthLab Salon is currently accepting presentation ideas centered around this question from all UW faculty, staff, and students!

Pairs of presenters from two distinct fields are invited to submit their talk proposals. Each pair will work collaboratively and present contrasting or complementary perspectives on the theme of equity and justice in environmental work. Presenters are encouraged to seek new colleagues from across units, professions, and positions, and to integrate creative modes such as dance, spoken word, or music, into presentations that enable multiple perspectives to be expressed.

For more information and to submit your idea, visit earthlab.uw.edu/2019/11/earthlab-salon-proposals or look at the attached document. For any questions, please contact sarajo@uw.edu.

This initiative is funded by EarthLab, CoENV Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Center for Communication, Difference and Equity, and an OMA&D Seed Fund.

Presentation ideas are due January 5, 2020

Please share among your networks.
