Since October 7, the resources of the Diversity Unit have been diverted to emergency response and preparations for the academic year, including messages to the university community, webinars, and emotional support. About two weeks into the war, we provided workshops to support academic organizations and help process trauma, and offered solutions for maintaining social and team resilience (see the Staff page for more on these workshops. More than 1,400 people took part in these workshops. On December 7, the Winter on Campus Forum was held, to improve shared spaces on campus and establish norms of tolerance and inclusion. Forty-three management and staff members and students of all populations took part. In addition, over 400 staff members and students volunteered to stand in the campus gates, congratulate incomers and distribute our “Public Statement Guidelines”.
