Description: Humanizing learning includes cultural awareness and inclusiveness, as well as social presence—the ability to interact authentically with peers across all teaching and learning. To address the structural inequalities and exclusions found in our society and in an academia, administrators, employees, instructors and students must work together to create an environment that supports all learners in their quest for safety, belonging and achievement.
