Due to concerns related to COVID-19, we decided to postpone our 2020 Spring to Action event, “Advocating for Ourselves and Others: How to Build Inclusive Communities.” We’ve included the incredible program we had lined up in our previous post. Although we are disappointed that we were unable to host the full event as planned, we look forward to having a modified, virtual version of this programming in late summer and fall.

NE GWiSE’s third annual Spring to Action Summit is coming up this weekend on Saturday, March 7th, 2020 at Northeastern University.

Dr. Jessica W. Tsai, co-director of the STEM Advocacy Institute (SAI) was recently nominated to serve as a panelist for Spring to Action 2020.

The New England Graduate Women in Science and Engineering (NE GWiSE) Seminar Series presents this interactive session with Dr. Rati Thanawala, co-sponsored by Graduate Women at MIT (GW@MIT).

On Saturday, August 10th, Tufts University Medford Campus hosted the annual New England GWiSE Summer Retreat on campus inclusivity. Graduate students from over 8 universities across New England heard from leading researchers, practitioners, and advocates about key challenges and solutions in empowering individuals to foster an inclusive campus climate.

8 days to go until our summer retreat!

Registration for our annual Summer Retreat event is finally open!
