The Supreme Court’s recent ruling against established equal protection under law not only effectively ended the use of affirmative action in college admissions\, but also paved the way for a host of new legal challenges to programs aimed at bolstering diversity.  And with the likelihood of new stakeholder pressures and pivotal moments arising as the 2024 U.S. presidential campaign cycle heats up\, the stage is set for a challenging period for diversity\, equity\, and inclusion work more broadly.  \nThis sea change threatens to undermine decades of work to ensure that our schools\, workplaces\, and institutions are more equitable\, and has the potential to change the landscape of DEIB work for decades to come. But within these headwinds is also a meaningful opportunity — a chance for leaders to take stock of and adapt to new challenges\, consider valid criticisms\, and meet the moment.  \nTogether\, we will isolate the most important and solvable challenges\, surface our biggest learnings and recommendations\, and think aloud in draft mode about what we can do to prepare for the road ahead. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n NationSwell’s events and experiences are designed to bring together diverse\, purpose-driven leaders and organizations for learning\, inspiration\, relationship-building\, and societal impact.

Together\, we’ll explore the state of play on ESG-related regulation\, what’s likely to come\, and some of the best moves we can make in terms of capacity building and planning to make sure that our organizations are hitting the mark on transparency\, compliance\, and impact. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n NationSwell’s events and experiences are designed to bring together diverse\, purpose-driven leaders and organizations for learning\, inspiration\, relationship-building\, and societal impact.

Meanwhile\, only 6% of American companies offer their employees child care benefits. \nThis backdrop sits at a time of immense social change\, disruption\, and possibility. The changes in work and working styles\, expectations of employers\, and a commitment to DEIB present a window of opportunity for businesses to not only actively support the re-entry of women in the workforce\, but also to accelerate the advancement of workers with families and usher in a broader commitment for gender equity.Join us for a 90-minute working group\, convening leaders to surface effective solutions\, understand barriers\, catalyze partnerships\, & share cross-sector knowledge to build the business case for supporting dual-working moms – those who work both in the home & in the workforce. \nThis working group is part of a NationSwell Collaborative project with American Family Insurance Institute for Corporate & Social Impact\, Annie E.

It is becoming increasingly clear that no matter who we are or where we live\, we all have a role to play in the solution. Leaders are becoming aware of the intersectional nature of climate issues – all jobs are eco-jobs\, and all organizations can incorporate climate into their work. Exciting cross-sector initiatives\, such as The Partnership for the Civilian Climate Corps that will put people on pathways to good-paying jobs in the clean energy and resilience sectors\, show us how leaders are entering the climate conversation and making a difference.  \nJoin us for a leadership support session led by climate experts from across industries on what you can do to incorporate a climate focus into your organization’s work. We’ll tackle key questions around implementing those changes: how to engage the next generation of leaders in our programs; how we can structure new financial mechanisms that de-risks investment in climate tech solutions at the project development stage; and how we can best leverage the most effective cross-sector partnerships and storytelling to catalyze support for the implementation of new solutions. \nOur goal is to carve out virtual space for connection\, support\, and shared learning for any leaders of nonprofits\, businesses\, social enterprises\, and communities who are navigating ways to address intersectional issues in their work.
