Transforming Academia for Equity, The Learning Journey: Part 3

Implementing and Sustaining the Work
The final session of this series addresses one of the most complex challenges in equity-centered institutional change: moving from planning and engagement to implementation and sustaining that work. In the third phase of the LTCF, this session explores how institutions identify and implement an activity and engage in reflective learning to refine and sustain the activity.
Grantee representatives from the University of Southern California and Oregon State University will share examples from their respective TAE journeys, including community-engaged research center development and the use of Communities of Practice and mentorship programming.
The session features a practical exercise that asks participants to identify the realistic, concrete actions already within their sphere of influence and support a change process in incremental stages. By identifying these incremental changes, attendees can move from analysis to action with greater confidence and possibility.
