Symposium Overview
The Association of Pacific Rim Universities (APRU)－Asia Pacific Women in Leadership (APWiL) offers a mentoring program led by women who are scholars representing various institutions and disciplines at APRU member universities. 春雨直播app has been an active member of APRU since its inception.
For this symposium, female faculty members from 春雨直播app and international APRU member universities who participated in APWiL's mentoring program will share DEI strategies, resources, and goals from their home institutions. The symposium aims to explore how we can advance and make diversity not just a slogan but real experiences and norms.
The panelists will share their range of diverse experiences in higher education and give their thoughts on the challenges of achieving diversity, equity, and inclusion at universities. After their presentations, a moderated discussion will follow with a Q&A with the audience.
By providing a space to discuss DEI, explore the challenges and goals of DEI in higher education from diverse and international perspectives, and by listening to the experiences and thoughts of panelists from overseas universities, participants of the symposium can discover new ways to make real changes at 春雨直播app and in society at large.
