This interactive session begins with a case study of an effective outreach program, Kansas DNA Day. Working in small groups, participants identify needs that exist on their campuses and think of ways that professional skills can be developed by graduate students and postdocs through participation in an outreach program. Participants are guided through the development of an implementation timeline and program budget. Individually, participants work to identify resources for funding and share their findings with the larger group. By the end of the session, participants have a basic design, budget, and prioritized action plan to implement a science outreach program.
Participants learn how workplaces that value diversity can create an environment for better productivity and job satisfaction. Participants learn strategies to actively build and contribute to more inclusive workplace cultures.
