2024 Diversity & Inclusion Research Conference (DIRC24)

The seventh annual Diversity & Inclusion Research Conference (DIRC) is a hybrid, half-day event taking place on the afternoon of October 30, 2024 at the University of Georgia's Terry College of Business in Atlanta, GA (USA) and live on Zoom.

Building on the success of prior DIRC events, DIRC24 will include a mix of TED-style talks, disruptive conversations, multidisciplinary panels and lightning presentations. The goal of DIRC is to foster increased collaboration between Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) leders across all sectors.

With the US presidential election around the corner, it is imperative that we find solutions that address the mounting criticism. But our conversations cannot be limited to looking for flaws in the arguments of DEI detractors: we also need candid reflections on what the field of DEI has done wrong, so that we can learn from our mistakes and do better in the future.

Register today to take advantage of early-bird discounts and offers!
