Student Life Events at St. George

Self-Awareness: Foundational work in equity

Jun 1, 2021 02:00 PM to 03:45 PM

Registration Deadline: Jun 1, 2021 09:00 AM

Workshop Description: Addressing systemic oppression exists both within and outside of ourselves. We often talk about "doing the personal work" but what work are we to do? How do we do it? This workshop will give you the opportunity to do some of this reflection in community with both the support and challenge of fellow students as we think about how to do that work within our personal lives.

An optional 5 minute meditation will be offered after this workshop.

*Registration is required so that the morning of the event we can send you the meeting link. Please ensure to read your Registration Confirmation email for more details. A virtual meeting link will be sent to you the morning of the workshop. If there are not enough attendees, a workshop can be cancelled in which case an email will be sent to you.
