The pandemic has created a new normal of remote living: forcing many of us to move from in-person interactions to online and virtual experiences, heightening feelings of loneliness, disengagement and disproportionately affecting vulnerable and marginalized communities. During this transition, through thoughtfulness and intentional action we can create equitable and inclusive spaces, both at work and at home.
Sponsored by the Cornell Institute for Healthy Futures in collaboration with the K. Lisa Yang and Hock E. Tan Institute on Employment and Disability, this session features perspectives from the health, hospitality and design industries, highlighting academic research and tangible industry practices to increase understanding of diverse employee needs and enhance employees’ capacity to thrive in isolation.
Join this live interactive panel event on utilizing health, hospitality and design to re-frame human connection, share our humanity, and promote inclusion.
