March 6, 2023

In her doctoral work, Dr. Jodi Porter created a simple tool to help seminaries and theological schools discuss diversity, equity, and inclusion at their institutions. Those conversations can be difficult, but Porter’s tool provides a clear way to frame the issues and offers what questions to ask. In this episode, she discusses how the tool came to be and how schools can use it.

The tool: Download Dr. Porter’s two-page discussion tool here

Dissertation: Porter’s dissertation is open access and available here.
