Together Against Racism – launch of the VU anti-racism learning module

When: Tuesday 21 March, 11am–12pm
Where: Level 10, City Campus

Hosted by Equality, Inclusion and Belonging.

All VU staff, students, alumni and partner organisations are invited to Together Against Racism – the launch of a new learning module co-created over eight months with the VU community.

Come together to celebrate this work and to take a stand on the International Day for the Elimination of Racism.

The module will be available to all VU staff and students, and features the voices of people with living experience sharing their insightful and candid perspectives on identity, diversity, colonisation, the impacts of racism and how to stand as an ally and in solidarity.
