Description

Description: Towards a More Inclusive Astronomy (TaMIA) was created to provide a safe space within physics and astronomy departments to discuss equity and inclusivity. TaMIA meetings encourage attendees to understand the lived experiences of people with marginalized identities in science, and become better allies.

In this session Dr. Mallory Molina will discuss the history and goals of TaMIA, how it structures meetings to provide support to marginalized people, and demonstrate a group activity similar to those held in TaMIA meetings.
