Leading the way by role modeling self-compassion in addition to teaching and supporting self-compassion practices to others can propel the transition to emotional wellness and resiliency in any academic or work environment. In this presentation we will explore what self-compassion is and isn’t and how this practice can be a catalyst for success. I will share my classroom interventions that support emotional wellness for my students as well as research data from those interventions. The audience will learn easy to implement real world practices that support self-compassion and emotional wellness for students and themselves. Presenters: Carrie L.

Making it the Norm, Not the Exception 22 Global Inclusion Conference Concurrent Session In decolonizing our minds and the international field, it’s really important to look at the language that we use in global education. The language we use affects the ways we interact with our students and ourselves as colleagues. We invite you to explore the way language is often used when working with students and colleagues of the global majority. How do our conscious and unconscious biases impact our work? This session will examine how we can actively move away from deficit model language and move towards making inclusive model language the norm.

Interculturalization at Home through a Global DEIBJ Perspective by DA Global | Oct 6, 2022 | Collaboration & Initiatives at Home, Global Engagement Resources Interculturalization at Home through a Global DEIBJ Perspective 2022 Global Inclusion Conference Concurrent Session Too often campus DEI efforts are limited to US domestic issues focusing on our home students with little attention to about 1 million international students. However, it is our responsibility to expand traditional diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice (DEIBJ) efforts to include the international communities and perspectives. At Michigan State University (MSU), we intend to include the structural, systematic, social, academic, and interactional aspects at a local, national, and global level. The global DEIBJ vision adds gravity to domestic diversity efforts and better represents the way global diversity is becoming an impetus agent that needs to be woven into the fabric of HEIs at all levels to be effective. Global DEIBJ prepares faculty and students to go abroad while promoting the inclusion of internationals.

Acknowledging the diversity of communication styles, cultural context, and language, we recognize storytelling, itself, as a universal practice that builds connectedness and mutual understanding. Storytelling empowers the students, faculty, and staff who make up the institutions to engage in the critical dialogue as part of a comprehensive strategy for diversity and inclusion within global education. During this session, we will explore how universities can develop experiences to optimize programmatic and institutional outcomes in global education. We will present a case study and offer best practices to universities looking to incorporate storytelling into their strategic planning efforts. Presenters: David L.
