The Diverse Voices Conference: A Model of Diversity and Social Justice Education Beyond the Classroom

It is not uncommon for our journals to feature sections on Implications for Human Resource Development (HRD) research and theory to practice. It is time that we center our focus more on HRD education, specifically diversity and social justice education where students learn to be morally just human beings and to practice social justice goals in their work. Hite andMcDonald (2010) brought a Special Issue on diversity education and highlighted deficiencies in higher education curriculum that could provide students with the skills and competencies needed to respond to diversity and inclusion issues in the real world of work. Similarly, Collins (2017) challenged us to think how the horizons of undergraduate students might be expanded by engaging in diversity and inclusion coursework that exposes them to the work of HRD practitioners. This premier edition of Insights for HRD Education will explore HRD diversity and social justice education beyond coursework and the classroom and offer a unique perspective of how one HRD educator is equipping students with practical skills to become more responsive to social justice as a foundation for social change.
