Co Sponsors: American Evaluation Association, The Trachtenberg School at GWU, and Washington Evaluators
Dialogues on Race and Class in America
Join the American Evaluation Association (AEA) for a complimentary open dialogue to reflect and promote positive actions on the deeply rooted, and structurally intertwined issues behind the headlines that propel racial, ethnic, and class disparities in our society. This three-part series will bring evaluators, policy analysts, and applied researchers together to discern ways to proactively engage entrenched issues as the nation goes from one headline making incident to the next.
Our community plays a critical part in promoting positive action on any social issue of concern. Our work is expected to bring the power of systematic inquiry to promote understanding and positive movement on social issues. Through purposefully learning about ourselves and the society to which we contribute, we hope to create plans of action capable of positively impacting areas of national concern.
