Acknowledging the need for better public understanding of the connections between the health of people, places, and the planet, we added Media Fellows to our Scholars and Fellows program in 2023. Nova’s Media Fellowship program aims to increase the number and quality of print and online articles as well as broadcasts that reflect a broad vision of health, are science-based, and accurately report on pertinent ideas, questions, and debates. We embrace solutions journalism while also seeking to combat mis- and dis-information, which have become a scourge in health and science communications. We also want to disseminate innovative research and ideas, and evidence-based information, to many different audiences in understandable and engaging formats. https://lnkd.in/eNFiFqnf

Re-Post Hello, Comrades -- I'm pleased to invite you to two upcoming webinars in December that are free and open to the public (I'm co-presenting in the first, and co-organizing the second): FRIDAY DECEMBER 1 at 12-1:30 PT (3-4:30 ET): AERA-REAPA webinar with Drs. A. Lin Goodwin, Kevin Kumashiro, and OiYan Poon. Topic: How do you come to understand self as you position "I/we" in relation to life, work/scholarship, and advocacy? What advice do you have for younger scholars/scholars-in-training and early professionals to have courage, clarity, sustainability, and happiness even when facing challenges? This webinar is organized by the AERA REAPA (Research on the Education of Asian Pacific Americans) SIG. RSVP for the 12/1 Webinar REAPA here. FRIDAY DECEMBER 8 at 10-11:30 PT (1-2:30 ET): EDJE webinar on "Associate Deans: Preparing for Future Roles" with Drs. B. Grant Hayes, Denise Taliaferro Baszile, and Bryan Zugelder.   Topic: A panel of deans and associate deans will share insights, strategies, challenges, and resources regarding how associate and assistant deans can thrive in their current roles while preparing for what might come next. Guiding questions include: How might Associate/Assistant Deans who are also associate professors prepare for promotion to full professor?  How might ADs who are interested in becoming a dean prepare?  How might explicitly addressing justice and equity goals help and hinder ADs in pursuing promotion to full or becoming deans?  How might deans support ADs as they pursue promotion to full or becoming deans?  How might ADs support their colleagues in preparing for and pursuing leadership roles?  There will be ample time for attendees to ask questions and the discussions, and all attendees will be encouraged to participate by contributing your own insights and resources verbally and in the Chat. This webinar is organized by Education Deans for Justice and Equity (EDJE). RSVP for the 12/8 EDJE webinar here Hope to see many of you at one or both events. Please share with others who might be interested. Thanks! Kevin
