Published on October 19, 2023

The College of Public Health Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) committee is pleased to invite you to DEI Bystander Training

Wednesday, Oct. 25
12:30 to 1:20 p.m.
C217 CPHB and on Zoom

Participants will learn strategies for managing difficult DEI-related conversations and scenarios. Participants will explore why conversations around DEI-related topics can be challenging and practice applying strategies. Using concepts from the Calling In and Calling Out Guide from Harvard University, participants will learn how to respond when something problematic is said, how to invite curiosity without defensiveness, and how to respond if they may unintentionally cause harm.

Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to attend all University of Iowa-sponsored events. If you are a person with a disability who requires a reasonable accommodation in order to participate in this program, please contact the College of Public Health in advance at 319-384-1500.
