Welcome to Week 5!
Rachel Hailey
Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a great wrap-up to last week and took some time to rest on one of the holidays this past week. This week, we'll dive deep into understanding your own motivations and intentions for engaging in this work through the self-paced module (Audio & Slides have been posted!). You'll examine how your specific role, responsibilities, and power within your organization shape your influence and capacity to champion DEI practices.
Action Steps for This Week:
Dive into the self-paced module: Explore your role in shaping equitable practices and policies.
Conduct your informational interview: Use the organization you identified in Week 2 to conduct an informative interview. If you do not have an interview scheduled, please reach out to me directly for alternative options.
Submit your reflection project by Sunday, February 25th.
Bonus Discussion (Optional):
Reply to the thread - Share a creative idea you have for promoting inclusivity in outdoor spaces. Or, if you have tried something out, how did it work out? What were the challenges or lessons learned?
We have two more weeks left in this course, so start thinking about wrapping up projects before the final deadline. Please submit projects from Week 1 through 4 by the end of this week, so we have adequate time to provide feedback. If you are choosing not to complete a project, just let me know. Life happens! If I do not hear from you by the end of this week regarding projects 1 through 4, we will consider them incomplete.
Cheers,
Rachel
