We expect that the speakers will include:
Lauren Gaillard ’17, DEI Manager at CODE University of Applied Sciences in Berlin
Lauren serves as the Director for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Bard College Berlin in Germany. Before assuming this position, Lauren served as the co-director and co-founder of the Techstart Program at CODE University of Applied Sciences where she supported people from historically marginalized communities, specifically those with a forced migration or migrant background to up-skill in tech and find an entry-level position in the field of digital product development across Germany.
In addition to this work, she enjoys being a consultant and speaker for start-ups and ed-tech programs looking to further their DEI initiatives related to strategy, governance, migration and integration, inclusive tech, and Blackness in Europe, and now also finds joy and a great sense of responsibility serving as an expert on DEI admission criteria for the Fulbright Studienstipendium program.
She holds an M.A. in Transatlantic relations in political science and a B.A. in sports administration with a minor in music from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
