Following an acknowledgment of the Ohlone people and land of the place our conference occupies, storytellers from different identities and career stages will share their experiences of change - or attempted change - in diversity, equity, and inclusion in their lives and careers. Think of it as

Our hope is that these stories will make room for more stories – both during the conference and once we all return to our home institutions – about how this vital work is progressing at our LTER sites.
Reflection opportunities (analog and online) throughout the session will allow attendees to engage with speakers and share their own stories.
