CAIEP Learning Network: DEI and IPE (Roundtable Discussion)

Marc Ebenfield, Ph.D. Director, CETL and Shannon Zlotkowski, M.S., Assistant Provost, DEI will facilitate a discussion on the intersectionality between national IPEC competencies and DEI, Accessibility and Belonging (DEIAB).

This 75-minute workshop is a collaboration between CAIEP, UNE’s Office of DEI, the Patient Advocacy Advisory Team, and CETL. It will include the following aims:

• Describe the intersectionality between IPECP and DEIAB (this will include a brief overview of the new IPEC 2023 competencies that emphasize social justice and equity)

• Identify ways to integrate DEI and social drivers into IP activities and vice versa.

• Acknowledge inherent hierarchy in health education and practice and discuss how to address power dynamics and microaggressions that occur in teams

• Offer methods to address difficult conversations in the IP/DEI space.
