Review Journey for Teams Educational Modules

Educational Modules

JOURNEY FOR TEAMS is organized into DEI topics. Each topic is written by a DEI topic champion in the field and presented as a video introduction followed by a facilitated group discussion. The activities are designed to be brief and the discussion is focused on finding one thing that the group can agree to do that will further their commitment to DEI.

Each topic can be covered in a 15-minute meeting. If the team wants to learn more about certain topics, additional resources are listed to encourage self-learning and further discussion.
