Just Space Social Justice Conference (NCHO & Duke University Residence Life)

The second annual NCHO Social Justice Conference, hosted by the North Carolina Housing Officers and Duke University Residence Life.

This year's conference focus is on just space. What are we taking for granted in our social justice work? Are our campus spaces and residence halls - bedrooms, common spaces, kitchens, bathrooms, meeting rooms - just spaces for engaging students and colleagues, or can they become just spaces? In this one day conference, we are interested in how you critically examine yourself, your institution, and your practices so that you might cultivate an environment, or Just Space, to discuss and dismantle the various structural systems of injustice facing our campuses today. From accessibility to cost, sanctuary campuses to the naming of buildings, gender inclusive spaces to staff training: how do you create inclusive, equitable environments where everyone - students, staff, faculty - are treated justly.
