A high-impact 4-part national webinar series bringing us together to address today’s threats to K–12 and higher education and their impact on American democracy and the social good.
Through evidence-based conversations with national leaders in education research, practice, and policy, we will examine the consequences of federal actions on research and education while fostering dialogue across sectors. Join us to process the here and now, build collective strategies for educational justice, and equip ourselves and our communities with tools.
Together, we can reclaim and transform education for equity.
