Program Description: Creating justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging (JEDI) curriculum has the potential to create transformative learning experiences for both students and administrators. Not only does JEDI curriculum provide us with personal exploration but also the ability to create caring learning communities, mediate power imbalances, and foster community and a sense of belonging. This session features a panel of administrators and faculty members whose critical perspectives and JEDI expertise facilitate a curriculum that humanizes us across our differences.
