Courageous Conversations Series
The Office for Inclusive Excellence is excited to introduce to the UCI community our Courageous Conversation Series which aims to foster civil discourse on challenging topics that affect our community. Through facilitated discussions, it is our goal to:
- Create a brave space for diverse perspectives to be heard and valued
- Address difficult issues, promoting mutual understanding and respect
- Empower participants with knowledge and tools for constructive engagement
- Bridge divides by finding common ground and shared values
- Inspire action towards positive change in our community
We truly hope you will join us as we tackle tough topics with courage, compassion, and a commitment to growth.
Together, we can build a stronger, more unified community.
All voices are welcome. Let's have the conversations that matter because each of YOU matter!
