2022 Hybrid Conference Weekend of Events

was held on

February 17 - 20, 2022 | Washington, DC

takes a village

to raise a child,

They say it

so it will take a nation to be strong enough to raise America through it’s institutions to be an adequate ally to the groups who are alienated from achieving agency and freedom.

The assignment of holding financial institutions, corporations, and political parties accountable is long overdue. This call to action by the Black community and from Black women leaders, is a tradition. Last year’s recognition of four pandemics: racism, economic, environmental and notably health highlights there is no time like the present to continue the tradition of Black women holding the world accountable.

With the bigger picture of paving a way for the following generation of economists, researchers, and policymakers in mind, the overarching theme of SACE 2022 is accountability and building community.

Join us to engage in community collaboration on how to combat these tough conversations and gain the knowledge and resources to be a better advocate for the community.
