!Two half days! Monday, 30 November and Tuesday, 1 December each from 9:00-13:00!

Women, people of color, expats, LGBTQAI+ and neurodivergent individuals often face unique and amplified challenges. 

Most DEI workshops are aimed at people who aren’t minorities (teaching allies to recognize bias, intervene well, and change their behavior). This workshop is the opposite: it’s built for minorities themselves, as the people who already know the problems exist and are often asked to educate others, while still facing draining daily challenges. Instead of spending the day explaining your experience to less informed colleagues, you’ll spend it on building your own home in academia through self-affirmation, assertive scripts calibrated for power asymmetry, wellbeing practices, flexible coping strategies for minority stress, and building a support network. We only discuss topics that will allow you, the minority researcher, to thrive despite a system that wasn’t built for you. You will leave with research-backed tools you can use right away to make everyday life as a science minority easier.
