SUMMARY:Roundtable Discussion on the Politics of Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:The concepts of politics and sustainability are loaded with various\, and evolving meanings and interpretations in their own terms and relationally. This Roundtable aims to reflect on the concept of power and its relationship with\, and manifestation in sustainability discourses and practices. To this end\, the following questions are asked: What constitutes the politics of sustainability? How does the environment and society feature in that politics? How is sustainability linked to the past and futurisms? Who has the power to define socioecological futures\, and with what effects? These questions are posed here as a source of reflection from different vantage points rather than a search for ‘correct answers.

SUMMARY:Refocusing on Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion: Leadership Lessons from Higher Education Institutions (HEI) in the AAP Consortium
DESCRIPTION:Event RSVP\nMost higher education institutions now promote diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI) as core values attached to their institutional mission because doing so is crucial for ensuring a welcoming and inclusive campus environment for all students\, academics\, and staff. Diversity brings with it a number of educational benefits\, including improved racial and cultural awareness\, enhanced critical thinking\, higher levels of service to community\, and a more educated citizenry\, to name a few. However\, other components like equity and inclusion are also essential to delivering on diversity’s promise to higher education more broadly. People with different life experiences ask different questions. They enrich dialogues and may ignite contestation or disruption of the status quo\, which fuels the creation of new knowledge\, innovation and deeper understanding. This dialogue brings together a panel of leaders to share their perspectives in a frank discussion on how they respond to DEI at HEIs. This dialogue brings together a panel of leaders from the AAP consortium to share their perspectives in a frank discussion on how they respond to DEI at Higher Education Institutions.
