12pm-1pm (AEST)
Wednesday 20 August
Online
Protests on campus, rising antisemitism and other forms of racism, divisive policy settings, governmental claims that universities have lost their way, pre-emptive censorship, community scepticism about higher education’s public good: at no time in living memory has social cohesion been so fraught as it is today.
Join Professor Heather Zwicker, DASSH President, Executive Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences and Pro Vice-Chancellor for Campus Culture at The University of Queensland as she shares essential insights from the front lines of developing a pan-university Antiracism Commitment.
This session will be chaired by Professor Cynthia White, DASSH Vice-President, Pro Vice-Chancellor of Humanities and Social Sciences at Te Kunenga ki Pūrehuroa Massey University.
