“Steps Towards Inclusion, a journey of selective sites denoting African American contributions at the University of Georgia”

Explore African American contributions at the University of Georgia through the self-guided Steps Towards Inclusion site tour, featuring 10 locations across the UGA Athens campus. The Steps Towards Inclusion tour can be completed in person during the month of February or online year-round through our immersive virtual experience.

This event aims to educate participants about the rich history and contributions of African Americans at the University of Georgia and to foster a more inclusive and welcoming environment. The F&A Culture and Belonging Committee is comprised of representatives from F&A’s 12 central divisions and offices who work to identify and address opportunities for growth. In addition to promoting education regarding inclusion, the committee hosts public events promoting community engagement and awareness across the University.
