OEWeek Live! Socially Just Distributed Care in the Open with Equity Unbound
Wed March 5, 2025 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm GMT
How MYFest and Intentionally Equitable Hospitality manifest to promote socially just care in the open
We are delighted to offer this open conversation with a fantastic team of representatives from Equity Unbound– the movement started in 2018 focused then on “equity-focused, open, connected, intercultural learning curriculum for teaching digital literacies to educators and co-learners in diverse educational contexts.”
We will learn how this has evolved and grown to now in 2025 for an open discussion on the How Mid-Year Festival (MYFest) and Intentionally Equitable Hospitality (IEH) manifest to promote socially just care in the open. As we are all witnessing, this current time is a call for much more acts of care.
How can you be part of Equity Unbound and their mission “Making Borders Meaningless”? Learn more about IEH and as well what is in store for the next round of MYFest starting in June 2025.
Joining in the conversation are:
- Maha Bali (American University in Cairo, Equity Unbound Co-Founder)
- Mia Zamora (Kean University, Equity Unbound Co-Founder)
- Yasmine Abulfadl (American University in Cairo, Equity Unbound)
- Nadine Aboulmagd (American University in Cairo, Program Manager Equity Unbound)

Note the format of our OEWeek Live conversations are strongly inspired by the early efforts many here were involved with via Virtually Connecting – its spirit lives on here.
