What is Summit for Action?
Summit for Action began in 2019 as an event for thought-provoking discussions and solutions-based recommendations for Justice, Equity, Diversity, Accessibility and Inclusion. The Summit for Action model helps develop shared understanding around the steps needed to inspire and drive social change around Equity, Accessibility and Inclusion issues. The vision of Summit for Action is to be a catalyst for action that creates a more equitable world. This is done through facilitating dialogue and creating cross-sector partnerships to tackle these complex social problems.
Since its inception, Summit for Action has grown from an annual event to an ecosystem of community leaders, instigators, researchers, policymakers, facilitators, and practitioners who work collaboratively toward solving some of society's most pressing challenges. Join us as we continue to expand our network and evolve our understanding of collective action.
