About this event
Building equitable ownership and real autonomy takes more than good intentions. FIF Collective’s Equity Assurance Webinar With Slice Global is designed for people who want a clearer, more practical understanding of how assurance, community, and ownership intersect in real decision-making. If you care about creating structures that are fair, durable, and aligned with the people they affect, this conversation is built for you. About the Event This event brings together the perspective of FIF Collective and Slice Global for a focused webinar on equity assurance. At its core, the session is about examining how organizations, collectives, and communities can think more rigorously about fairness, accountability, and autonomy when building systems meant to serve people well. Rather than staying at the level of abstract principles, the event is positioned to help attendees connect big ideas to real operating questions. That includes how equity can be assessed, what assurance means in practice, and why community-centered thinking matters when designing processes, opportunities, and outcomes. The format is a webinar, which means attendees can expect a structured learning environment with room for thoughtful discussion. Because the themes include assurance, autonomy, and community, the event is especially relevant for people who are looking for language, frameworks, and practical ways to evaluate whether their work is actually living up to its values. This is also a strong fit for people who want to engage with others who care about similar issues. Even in a webinar setting, the event is shaped around shared interest and exchange, making it more than a one-way presentation. What to Expect You can expect a session that balances context, practical insight, and conversation. The webinar will likely move from framing the core ideas behind equity assurance into more applied discussion about how those ideas show up in organizational and community settings. Topics attendees may explore include: What equity assurance means and why it matters now How autonomy and accountability can support, rather than compete with, one another The role of community in shaping better systems and decisions Ways to think about fairness beyond surface-level inclusion Questions to ask when evaluating whether a structure is truly equitable The session is also well suited to reflective learning. Expect opportunities to consider how these themes relate to your own work, whether you are building programs, leading teams, shaping policy, supporting founders, or participating in a collective effort. Because networking is one of the event tags, attendees should come ready to connect around shared challenges and interests. Even if the event is content-led, part of the value will come from being in the room with people who are actively thinking about how to make equity more concrete and measurable. Why Attend If you have ever felt that conversations about equity can become too vague, this event offers a chance to ground the topic in a more actionable frame. Assurance suggests a standard: not just saying the right things, but examining whether systems, choices, and outcomes actually support fairness and autonomy. This matters across many kinds of work. Whether you are part of a startup, a mission-driven organization, a community initiative, or an evolving team, the ability to assess equity more clearly can influence trust, decision quality, and long-term resilience. Attending can help you: Sharpen your understanding of equity in operational terms Build stronger language for discussing fairness and accountability with others Learn from a perspective that connects community values with structure and practice Identify questions or gaps in your own current approach Meet others who are invested in more thoughtful, equitable ways of working The event is especially valuable if you want to move from agreement to application. It creates space to think more critically about what equitable systems require, and what it takes to support autonomy without losing coherence or responsibility. Practical Details Date: Tuesday, September 9 Time: 3:00 PM EDT Location type: In person Because this is listed as in person, attendees should plan for a live, shared-room experience rather than a remote session. That makes it a good opportunity not only to learn from the webinar content itself, but also to have more direct contact with other participants before, during, or after the session. If you are considering attending, it is worth setting aside time not just for the formal start, but for arrival and conversation. Events centered on community, assurance, and networking often become most useful when you leave room for follow-up questions and relationship-building. Bring your real questions. Whether you are early in your thinking or already doing this work, you will get more from the event if you come prepared to test assumptions, compare approaches, and think honestly about where equity needs stronger support in your own context. If these topics are central to your work or values, this event offers a timely chance to engage with them in a practical, community-minded setting.
