SUMMARY:Online Event - 11/12/25 - The Roundtable: Justice in Action for Animal Welfare - The AAWA
DESCRIPTION:The animal welfare profession has made meaningful progress toward diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI)—but real transformation requires going further. To create lasting change\, we must look beyond DEI initiatives and examine the deeper systemic barriers that shape who has access to animal care\, services\, and leadership opportunities. \nAs a follow-up to our Justice in Action: Moving Beyond DEI in Animal Welfare webinar (October 21\, 2025)\, this interactive roundtable invites participants to explore what justice in action looks like in practice. You’ll hear from peers and panelists who are embedding justice into their organizations’ everyday work—sharing candid insights\, challenges\, and strategies along the way. \nWhether you lead an organization\, manage teams\, or work directly with communities\, this discussion will provide a space to exchange ideas\, spark collaboration\, and co-create approaches to advancing justice across our field. \nParticipants will: \n\nDiscuss what “justice in action” looks like in practice\nExplore examples of justice in action in the workplace\nShare strategies to incorporate justice in action into organizational culture\n\nFacilitated by: Jasmin Robinson\, Director of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion Initiatives\, The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://learning.theaawa.org/p/11-12-25

SUMMARY:Online Event - Monthly - Journey You Own Meditation Gathering - JYO
DESCRIPTION:Create a shared\, supportive space to explore grounding practices. \nThe guided meditations happen every month and typically run 30-45 minutes. All are welcome to these very low-key sessions\, with videos on or off\, whatever feels most comfortable to you. No speaking is necessary unless you’d like to share at the end of the session. \nAttendees register once and can attend any of the monthly meditation dates. Don’t forget to add the dates to your calendar to ensure you don’t miss out on any sessions. \nAbout the Host \nJyothi Robertson is a student of meditation practice for 40+ years and trauma-sensitive grounding practices formally for the past three years. She was raised by parents who practice meditation and lead spiritual teachings for members of their Indian community. She began pursuing her own formal exploration of spirituality as an anthropology major at Princeton University and conducted fieldwork for her thesis while living at an ashram (spiritual center) in India in 1996. As a veterinarian\, she is interested in highlighting the spiritual connection between all living beings. \nJyothi has completed certifications in trauma-sensitive mindfulness\, advanced trauma-sensitive meditation\, deep listening\, DEI\, and since 2019\, has been receiving training in Buddhist meditation practices and philosophy. As a student learning meditation\, she is interested in exploring these practices with others in community. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://jyo.world/meditation-gathering/
