The majority of the webinar will include a discussion with Keukeu Abdullah. Keukeu will discuss her own faith perspective and answer questions regarding Ramadan. Please note that this event is part of a series and will include new and different information from past sessions.
Supervisors, managers, and the campus community play a role in ensuring that all individuals, no matter their background, feel welcome and that no aspect of their identity will mean that they feel as though they aren’t included. The University strives to encourage an environment where employees bring their “full self” to work, where they feel comfortable, willing, and able to talk about what is most important to them. As such, the workplace can play a critical role in breaking barriers and encouraging increased intercultural understanding and communication.
