Our very own Ifrah Salih,<\/strong>\u00a0Senior Lecture, Academic Development & Diversity (ADD) and\u00a0Jackie A Brewster,<\/strong> Senior Lecturer, College of Health Wellbeing & Life Sciences (HWBL) presented their own session “Understanding the Importance of Each Other’s Names: practical Exercise” at the University of Warwick: Say My Name Symposium on 18th February 2022.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is important to use someone\u2019s full name and not to ask racially minoritised people to shorten their name or provide a nick name. Instead we want people to learn how to pronounce the names of racially minoritised individuals. Ifrah and Jacqui demonstrated the exercise where they share the meaning behind their names, the cultural context and the importance of using our full name.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The University of Warwick said “thanks yet again for such a fantastic presentation.\u00a0 Just so you can track impact, I am introducing your activity as a welcome week activity for staff to use at Warwick this coming academic year”.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
