Host: Diversci
Interested in social justice, equity, diversity and inclusion in informal science engagement? Join colleagues and peers from across the world in the free Diversci “Community of Practice” regularly meeting to share ideas, resources and challenge with each other.
The community of practice meets every two months online which involves a peer-led spotlight talk exploring a specific theme.
The theme of this discussion will be exploring strategies for inclusion:“The act of moving an organization to become more welcoming, more inclusive, more diverse, and more equitable requires a balance between the level of awareness it can reach, and the way it puts into practice such learnings, this is a nonstop endeavor.
Silvio Wey, Director of Visitor Experience at The Swiss Science Center Technorama, and Amparo Leyman Pino, Principal & Founder at Yellow Cow Consulting, will walk us through clear strategies and concrete examples on how they have worked together to achieve big wins towards inclusion. For Technorama, these strategies have become their everyday practice.”
