GPRA Strategic Management, Inc. is developing a series of workshops to bring national attention to the issues related to minority women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields in academia. The goal of the "STEM Women of Color Conclave" is to provide a national forum in which women of color in institutions of higher education can form the collective intelligence necessary for building a national network, harnessing a centralized body of knowledge and best practices related to women of color and promoting the personal and professional development of women of color in the academy. The participants have the opportunity to address the special challenges facing women of color in the academy in STEM fields where they are underrepresented at every faculty level.Each workshop will inform and disseminate current research findings related specifically to the women of color research agenda; build strategic alliances across cultural and racial groups to encourage and support the advancement of women of color to institutional, national and global STEM leadership positions; develop and sustain a national network of mentors, role models and colleagues with similar personal and research interests; and promote national attention to the issues related to women of color in the academic STEM fields.

GPRA战略管理公司正在举办一系列讲习班，以引起全国对学术界科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）领域中与少数民族妇女有关的问题的关注。“STEM有色人种女性秘密会议”的目标是提供一个全国性的论坛，在这个论坛上，高等教育机构的有色人种女性可以形成建立全国网络所必需的集体智慧，利用与有色人种女性相关的集中知识和最佳实践，并促进有色人种女性在学院的个人和职业发展。参与者有机会解决有色人种女性在STEM领域面临的特殊挑战，在这些领域，有色人种女性在每个教员级别的代表性都不足。每次讲习班将通报和传播与有色人种妇女研究议程具体有关的当前研究成果；建立跨文化和种族群体的战略联盟，鼓励和支持有色人种女性晋升到机构、国家和全球STEM领导职位；发展和维持一个由导师、榜样和具有相似个人和研究兴趣的同事组成的全国网络；并促进全国对STEM学术领域有色人种女性相关问题的关注。
