The Heller Office of Equity, Inclusion and Diversity celebrates Heller’s multicultural diversity through various events such as Africa Night, International Mother Language Day, Asian Night, and other artistic and cultural activities. We also observe the major national and international months and days through social events and awareness programs, and host a series called Sankofa Community Conversations.
Sankofa Community Conversations
In 2017, the school launched the Sankofa Community Conversations, a series of semi-structured events and community conversations to promote dialogue across our silos. The spirit of the conversations respects the Ghanaian (Twi) concept of remembering the past to prepare for the future. The series grew out of the idea that new members to the community bump into Heller’s Ford Hall history. Sankofa Community Conversations are intended to provide an opportunity for frank, intimate conversations. We hope everyone will join in on this effort, eventually becoming change agents and bridges across our silos.
