Centering Wellbeing and Affirmative Education
We use our agency to advance joy/justice and equity with dignity and intention by centering wellbeing in global learning, especially for the African diaspora. Using an assets based framework supported by ancient wisdom systems, our focus is on helping people use their agency to create sustainable systemic change. Our scope of work includes professional development workshops, retreats, keynote presentations, guest lectures, mentoring/coaching, strategy development, international education program development and support, consulting on special projects, dramaturgy, writing and wellbeing support for organizations, individuals, and institutions.
We enthusiastically welcome the opportunity to co-create with you!
We work with organizations, institutions and individuals advancing their agency to provide greater wellbeing in education abroad for global learners and their leaders. Founded on JEDI principles of justice and equity with dignity and intention, we develop communities of care by creating supportive global learning environments centering participants of African descent and the communities who support them.
Mission:
Advancing joy/justice and equity with dignity and intention through global learning and wellbeing, especially for the African diaspora.
Vision:
To help organizations and institutions engage global learning with justice, equity, diversity and inclusion (JEDI) standards so robust and deeply entrenched that we change the way we see the world and ourselves in it.

Testimonial
“I worked with Dr. Abraham for several years, collaborating on topics related to diversity, equity, and inclusion in education abroad. I found her multifaceted background served to open and expand conversations, encouraging us to think holistically about the trainings needed for staff, the support we could offer students, and indeed how we fundamentally thought about what DEI meant for our organization. Dr. Abraham’s skilled and measured leadership supported our organization though a deliberate reflection process, working towards a quality and sustainable final product.”
