System-wide Equity and Diversity Action Network
(SEDAN)
The System-wide Equity and Diversity Action Network (SEDAN) was created in 2007 to bring together professional staff whose job responsibilities focus on furthering the University’s equity and diversity goals. The SEDAN group comes together regularly to share best practices, discuss current issues, facilitate deeper collaborations with other professionals engaged in equity and diversity work, and find ways to work together toward institutional transformation.
The mission of SEDAN is to enhance collaboration, increase visibility, and address the challenges associated with equity and diversity work.
