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.

In this session\, our team will share insights from the first year\, highlighting places that employers & funders can make a difference. In addition\, the team will discuss the next steps for the Collaborative in the new year & how you can get involved. \nFor context: The COVID-19 pandemic and its effects have had profound implications for women in the workforce – millions of women left the workplace in 2020 and over 2 million women have still not returned\, many due to the lack of affordable and accessible childcare. The implications of this social and economic issue have exposed a few key dynamics: (1) the US has a broken care system that has disproportionately affected working families\, especially BIPOC women\, and frontline workers (2) women\, in particular\, mothers\, tend to bear the brunt of unpaid caregiving responsibilities\, and (3) the economic consequences of this workforce exodus not only affects families and individual households\, but business growth and the U.S. economy suffer overall\, too.  \nIn partnership with American Family Insurance Institute for Corporate and Social Impact\, Annie E. Casey Foundation\, National Domestic Workers Alliance\, Pivotal Ventures\, and Working for Women\, our Case for Childcare Collaborative has spent the last year engaging in research to understand the widespread challenges and opportunities when it comes to making the business case for childcare and the economic impact at large\, while also seeking out solutions and examples of what is working. We believe employers have an important role to play in the child care movement. We are thrilled to continue this work for a second year\, doubling down our efforts on employers of frontline\, low-wage\, and gig workers. \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.

New reporting regulations are in effect or will soon be\, global efforts to increase focus on biodiversity and nature-related climate impacts are underway\, scrutiny of carbon markets and their role in net zero commitments is reaching new heights\, AI is promising novel solutions at the same time it carries certain risks to our progress\, and the need for community-centered approaches to adaptation and resilience is likely to become even more acute as climate impacts mount. \nJoin us at this virtual Leader Roundtable for a forward-looking discussion about the year ahead for climate and sustainability work. Together we’ll surface the most pressing questions\, trends\, needs\, and opportunities on the horizon for 2024 and engage one another in a discussion about the most impactful ways this community can drive progress in the months 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.
