An Introduction to Bias Awareness: Supporting Social Justice Practices

Type: Virtual

Location: Virtual

Date: Monday, May 27 Time: 7:00 - 8:30 pm

Facilitator: Shyanne Favaro, Quality Support Worker, EYPRC

Have you been thinking with how to create belonging for all indivudals in your learning spaces? 

Join us to explore the concept of being aware of our biases. We will spend time recogonizing our unique viewpoint and experiences and how that translates into our own identity. We will also discuss incorporating reflective methods to engage social justice practices within our learning community.

Please come prepared to enter a Brave Space: "A brave space is somewhere we may encounter difficulty and discomfort and enter dialogue as a collaborative art where we can wrestle with other perspectives in the pursuit of courageous collaboration as the heart of pedagogical practice." -Ann Pelo and Margie Carter
