CoPs bring together a group of faculty who are interested in a particular topic and who wish to explore it further together, ultimately developing a shared set of resources, tools, and knowledge. Participants will explore and develop strategies for fostering belonging. Along the way, there will be opportunities for participants to cultivate their own sense of belonging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beginning in October 2023, the CoP on Belonging will focus on exploring strategies and developing an intervention.
