Equity centered leaders lead to equitable schools. In partnership with Columbus City Schools (CCS) and the Wallace Foundation, the Equity Institute centers training for educational leaders with equity as a leadership process and an outcome. As a part of Wallace’s Equity Centered Pipeline Initiative (ECPI), the institute focuses on strong evidence and practice that produce educational leaders to advance their district’s vision of equity. The College of Education and Human Ecology works with the Wallace Foundation to accelerate leaders’ knowledge, skills, action and evidence-based practices towards equity in K-12 school districts through focused learning opportunities, professional development, and coaching.
The Leadership for Equity Institute is an annual opportunity to engage with equity experts, practitioners and colleagues on equity-based leadership practices and sharpen skills by taking a deep dive into educational topics and innovative practices, participate in small group discussions and informal chats and network with leaders and experts.
Each year, we have a thematic focus and this year our focus is on school and district leadership, equity and joy. Content will be organized through keynotes, workshops, breakout sessions and other networking opportunities. The institute will feature active participation and problem solving, scenario analysis, planning and application and much more. Facilitators will engage participants through practical, usable tools and knowledge, as well as research and national trends.
