We are organising this event in response to the community&#39;s request to cover more sessions around this topic and also to garner interest in antiracism issues in the sector with the support of with other ALT Groups and SIGs. Dr Olatunde Durowoju will lead a panel discussion with 3 panelists: Dr Iwi Ugiagbe-Green, Dr Emanuela Girei &amp; Dr Teeroumanee Nadan.</p>

She describes herself as an academic activist and anti-racism scholar.&nbsp; In the last five years her work has focused on race and its intersection with other characteristics within the context of student education, experience, transition, and progression to graduate labour market and postgraduate study. Iwi is recognised nationally, as an expert on race equity issues that impact students in higher education and graduate employment.</p>

<p>Dr Emanuela Girei is a leader in Management at Liverpool Business School (LJMU). Emanuelas research agenda lies at the intersection of management, organisation studies and development studies, particularly on whether and how management theory and practice can contribute to making organisations, institutions and societies more just, equitable and sustainable. Within this agenda, one of Emanuelas key research interests is decolonising management knowledge and research.</p>

<p>Dr Teeroumanee Nadan works mainly around Internationalisation, Inclusive &amp; Digital Ed. She approaches HE challenges based on her own HE scholar experience in different countries and her collaborations with different institutions across the globe. She has been working around DEI since her student years in the UK, by founding the Women in Academia Network at her Alma Mater University of Reading and advocating for changes for female students &amp; staff.

<p>Our current generation of students have only ever known a world with smart phones, so when it come to the use of technology they see is as the norm, however their breadth of knowledge is limited.&nbsp; In this session will explore a range of formative assessment activities that teachers can use to further develop their student&#39;s Digital creativity skills and confidence.&nbsp;</p>
