Policy & Practices Review Initiative Event

UC Davis ADVANCE Roundtable
Davis, CA

A one-day system-wide Roundtable was sponsored by the NSF-funded UC Davis ADVANCE program on May 2, 2016. It convened UC faculty and academic administrators from ten UC campuses to begin framing policy and practice recommendations in two critical areas: fostering inclusive excellence and childcare. 

Goals of the Roundtable

To survey existing and propose new policies and practices in two critical areas: Fostering Inclusive Excellence and Childcare Equity programs. The morning session on fostering inclusive excellence divided the discussion of policy needs into three areas (1) climate assessment; (2) accountability; and (3) intervention training. The afternoon session focused on all areas of childcare, including leaves, additional financial support, on-campus childcare facilities versus vouchers or outside contracts, emergency childcare back-up, childcare support to attend meetings, childcare support for meetings held at UC, and other issues from the surveys of the participants.
