The POD Network is pleased to invite your participation in the 2021 POD Network Conference Affinity Group meetings. The goals of these affinity group meetings is to:
Establish or strengthen the sense of connection, solidarity, and mutual support amongst group members; Offer sustenance to members who might be subject to alienation, institutional hostility, and burnout in their roles in and beyond POD; Begin building a shared sense of purpose and expectations.
These meetings will be facilitated by conveners who will take notes and provide members of the POD Affinity Group ad hoc Committee with ways POD can support future affinity group meetings. Each group will have access to a sample meeting agenda, but are also welcome to develop their own. We hope these groups provide opportunities for personal connections and conversations. More importantly, we hope you identify topics of common interest that support your well being.
Although allyship is important please only attend groups that reflect your own, lived experience.
