Exchange Series

Presented by GenEQ

Have you been looking for a supportive community to help with your professional development? Not sure where to go, who to talk to, or maybe a little intimidated? 

Faculty, staff and graduate students who identify as women, gender diverse, or as allies, are invited to participate in the GenEQ’s inaugural Exchange Series (UofG’s Gender Equity Initiative).  

You’ll have the opportunity to participate in peer mentorship conversations with members of the U of G community by sharing personal stories and experiences navigating work and career challenges.  

You are welcome to come any time and stay as long as you’d like. While there, you are encouraged to move freely between stations, joining conversations that resonate with your interests and experiences while supporting your peers, developing your network on campus, and building a supportive community.
