This seminar series is organised by the Diversity and Events team from AVETH (www.aveth.ethz.ch), which is the scientific staff association of ETH Zürich, Switzerland. Follow us on Twitter: @AV_ETHZ

In this four-part seminar series, world renown scientists and community leaders will explore unique themes at the intersections of social justice and science. Around the world, the Black Lives Matter movement is challenging and dismantling systemic racism, but this movement can only be strengthened with greater international unity and intersectionality. Each seminar will be aimed at improving our understanding of racism, oppression of minorities, and how to make changes which foster justice and equity. As a global institution, participants will learn how to more effectively teach and mentor in a globally diverse environment such as ETH Zürich, become more comfortable talking about race, learn tips to advocate for systemic change, and how to build and support an anti-racist lab.
