REPOST: Announcing Critical Social Justice Week!

A whole month of inspiring, exciting programming!

Reposting from our friends at the Women's Gender, & Equity Center! The Center for Social Justice Dialogue is excited to collaborate on such meaningful events.

Critical Social Justice (CSJ) Week is a campus-wide initiative dedicated to deepening our collective understanding of equity, inclusion, and community care. Through panels, workshops, and creative programming, CSJ Week invites students, staff, and faculty to engage in meaningful conversations about justice and belonging within and beyond the university.

Critical social justice has a history in the Women's, Gender, & Equity Center, and we are excited to bring back this work now within the Community & Culture unit in the Division of Institutional Equity.


All events are open for participation from students (grad and undergrad), staff, and faculty!
