Equity Awareness Week

Equity Awareness Week

Join the Equity and Engagment team during this annual event as we chat with students across campus about all things equity.

Equity Awareness Week

Equity Awareness Week spreads awareness and educates the university community about equity-related topics such as 2SLGBTQ+ Inclusion, Anti-Ableism, Anti-Islamophobia, Anti Racism, Classism, Health Equity, Feminism and First Generation Student Support. Stop by the equity informational booths at Shawenjigewning Hall and Charles Hall, Atriums to chat with Student Engagement and Equity staff and Equity Advocates, receive informational handouts, interact with peers, and discuss equity-related topics and issues.

Let's Talk Sex

In response to student feedback provided to the Student Sexual Violence Prevention and Support Committee, Student Life has partnered with Durham College and the AIDS Committee of Durham to deliver workshops to provide education and destigmatization around topics of sex and sexuality. Part of building a culture of consent and respect on campus is providing space for conversations like these.
