Network of Inclusive Excellence Advisors
The Network of Inclusive Excellence Advisors is a group of distinguished experts designed to drive meaningful engagement and learning across the AU community. Representing fields such as peacebuilding, conflict resolution, intercultural communication, interfaith dialogue, disability justice, and migration, these advisors contribute unique perspectives that shape AU’s updated vision for inclusive excellence. They help define shared terminology, foster collaboration, and ensure these efforts are intentionally integrated into campus culture, advancing inclusive policies and practices at every level.
