Learning Experiences
The Respectful Dialogue Toolkit has been created to help those committed to leading and engaging in important conversations around race and racism, equity, and inclusion. These tools can be adapted for the classroom, the workplace, or a personal conversation with family or friends. This toolkit defines respectful dialogue, provides strategies for nourishing these meaningful conversations, and keeps the community updated with webinars and events to help you further develop your skills. The toolkit was developed in partnership by the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning, and University Libraries.
