d21 will continue to build upon the learnings from the Frameworks Institute at d20 that focused on shifting narrative frames. RSVP below to join our stigma-busting movement! 

PRE-MODULE INFORMATION SESSION: March 24

Only for people who did not attend d20, this one-hour kickoff session will orient newcomers to what we've learned about stigma since d20.

MODULE 1: March 30 – RECONNECTING AS STIGMA-BUSTERS

Four months after the close of d20, participants will reconvene for a 2.5 hour virtual gathering to explore the impacts and insights from individual action plan commitments, as well as the strategic questions and potential communications resources that the Stigma Strategy Group has been working on since d20. (New participants will have an opportunity to orient to the work done at d20 in advance of this module).

MODULE 2: May 25 – HONING PATHWAYS FOR CHANGE

In addition to refining participants’ communication skills and tools for individual stigma-busters, in this 3 hr virtual session participants we will begin to develop longer-term pathways for collective action to reduce diabetes stigma in the US along three tracks: Research, Media Advocacy, and Healthcare Providers.

MODULE 3: July 20-21 – CELEBRATING COLLECTIVE LEARNING

Whether virtual or in person (TBD), Module 3 will deepen the communications training and collective action strategy work of modules 1 and 2, and will also include our popular Lighting Talks to further foster inspirational learning and celebrate 5 years of dSeries as a hub for diabetes learning and action!
