19th Sep 2011 to 22nd Sep 2011 Birkbeck Orientation Week Diversity Events

Join staff and students at Birkbeck College in interactive explorations of diversity, inclusion and isolation.

As part of orientation week a series of talks and workshops will be held on equality and diversity with the themes of Tolerance and Freedom from Discrimination. 

Two workshops will be facilitated by Campusalam.

Monday 19 September: Diverse Beliefs, Inclusion or Isolation - World Café
How do our beliefs affect our neighbours? Join students and staff at Birkbeck for an interactive journey of ideas in a comfortable café setting. We will use storytelling, visual arts and open discussion to explore our diverse beliefs and how we relate to each other. Tolerance and extremism, inclusion and isolation, equality and rights – what do these terms mean to us? The results of our café will help to drive the Birkbeck equalities strategy forward.

Thursday 22 September: Dream It Up, Start It Now: Making Equality a Reality
Are you fizzing with ideas and ready to be a change-maker? Finish off Orientation Week with an interactive event that takes your creative ideas on equality and makes them a reality. Join staff and students at Birkbeck to form a solution-oriented action plan using creative tools. We will contribute up to £500 towards the implementation of the best plan to make it a reality. Together we can make our campus a model of equality.

Refreshments will be served at both events.
