{ "name":"November 2022 Mathematics Capacity Building Circles Registration", "description": "https://ticketfi.com/event/4784/november-2022-mathematics-capacity-building-circles-registration\n\n\" \\n\\nBackground Information\\n\\nThe Faculty of Mathematics will be hosting monthly small circle conversations to help faculty and staff build their capacity to support equity, diversity,  inclusion, and anti-racism (EDI-R) initiatives. For purposes of these circle conversations, we consider EDI-R discussions broadly and inclusive of current Waterloo priorities such as decolonization, and Indigenization.\\n\\nWith increasing awareness of EDI-R issues in the Faculty, Waterloo, our local community, and globally, there is recognition that Mathematics faculty and staff are being asked more frequently to examine how EDI-R considerations may relate to their specific roles. We recognize that our colleagues in the Faculty may be at different stages of their EDI-R journeys and could benefit from open and supportive spaces to explore what the next step of their journeys may look like.\\n\\nWhile there are many EDI-R training and development opportunities available at Waterloo, we have heard that some individuals may be reluctant to fully engage in training and conversations due to fear of not knowing the correct terminology or being judged for saying the “wrong” things. If you are starting your EDI-R journey or wish to explore new EDI-R topics – these circle conversations may be for you!\\n\\nTopic\\nThe topic for our October 2022 circle dialogues will be: "How do we move from talk to action?"\\n\\nSpecial Guest(s)\\nFor our November 14th circle we will have special guest Jermal Jones (Associate Director Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Access, Library) joining us for our discussions, as well as Leslie Wexler (Senior Educational Developer, Indigenous Knowledges and Anti-Racist Pedagogies) and Savannah Sloat (Manager, Indigenous Science Initiatives) for our November 21st circles. \\n\\nHow to Register\\n\\nThere are multiple circle conversations scheduled each month:\\n\\n\\n\\tOne exclusive to faculty members (F)\\n\\tOne exclustive to staff members (S)\\n\\tTwo sessions open to both faculty and staff members (FS)\\n\\nRemember that each session is limited to a maximum of ten (10) participants (including special guests).\\n\\nThe dates and times of each session are listed under "Tickets".
