In an effort to improve our workforces’ awareness concerning disadvantage communities, STEM, and Environmental Justice & Energy Justice (EEJ) the Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO) is looking to create an educational series led by the voices of the communities we are looking to serve better. Often times government employees do not get the opportunity to hear directly from the communities and/or its representatives. This creates and reinforces barriers to relationship building, knowledge acquisition and the empathy generation pivotal for policy and programmatic improvement. We are looking for 1-hr trainings forums, conversations or panels on the following subjects:
- Intersectionality and EEJ
- Race and EEJ
- Gender and EEJ
- Disability and EEJ
- Ethnicity and EEJ
- LGBTQIA+ and EEJ
- Intersectionality and STEM
- Race and STEM
- Gender and STEM
- Disability and STEM
- Ethnicity and STEM
- LGBTQIA+ and STEM
- Intersectionality and Gov Funding Opportunities
- Race and Gov Funding Opportunities
- Gender and Gov Funding Opportunities
- Disability and Gov Funding Opportunities
- Ethnicity and Gov Funding Opportunities
- LGBTQIA+ and Gov Funding Opportunities
We are purposely leaving the topics broad so that you as the community members and representatives can have the freedom to provide new and exciting insights to our office from your points of views. It is the hope that through these discussions and trainings emerges revolutionary relationships, thoughts and application.
