AGES is a research symposium meant to engage its audience in research and academia and create discussion over how we can use research to mobilize and educate communities. Research is an important facet of creating change. The symposium aims to focus on research under an intersection of Asian and gendered lens and how we can rethink research as a facilitator for change rather than a subject gatekept to academia.
The Asian Pacific Coalition, or APC, is an umbrella organization that represents 20 Asian Pacific Islander and Desi American-related (APIDA) organizations on campus. As the Asian Pacific Coalition at UCLA, we are dedicated to dismantling systems of racial oppression and striving for collective liberation through coalition-building with other communities of color.
