Equity in Public Policy (EQUiPP)

About

The mission of Equity in Public Policy (EQUiPP) is to equip students with the tools needed to advocate for and advance equity as students and policy professionals, as well as in our everyday lives. We use Policy Link’s definition of equity to guide our work: just and fair inclusion into a society in which all can participate, prosper, and reach their full potential. EQUiPP aims to create a new generation of policy professionals that understands the way that power, privilege, racism, and oppression intersects with our lives and our work. We do this by grounding ourselves in the knowledge and understanding of the current and historical systems of oppression, through experiential learning, and by hearing from practitioners who are currently advocating for equity.
