SECOND ANNUAL CONVENING

MAY 2 & 3, 2024

Elevating Stories of Impact & Belonging

Building on the success of our inaugural event, we are thrilled to announce the Second Annual HSI Equity Innovation Hub Convening. As part of this year’s theme, Elevating Stories of Impact and Belonging, we will emphasize impact storytelling that centers on student voices and uplifts our communities.

This is a GIF displaying diverse students' faces.

We will explore educational pathways that build a sense of belonging in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) and leverage technology to spark innovative programming. Join us as we celebrate the power of storytelling to cultivate belonging, inspire innovation and shape the future of STEAM for generations to come.
