Better Together

Learning and Education Committee

Learning and Education Committee has the following charges for it's work:

  • to examine training and education across a spectrum of DEI areas that include, but are not limited to: oppression, anti-racism, bias, microaggressions, allyship, and cultural awareness/humility; and
     
  • to better understand the current educational offerings - curricular, faculty development, and human resources - across HMS and HMS-affiliated institutions that could contribute to the institutional anti-racist mission of HMS.
