SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Astronomy 2024-2025 DEI Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"The Role of Peer Mentoring in Astronomy: LUMA as an Example\"\n\nPeer mentoring offers a unique and impactful approach to professional development\, fostering supportive relationships among individuals at similar career stages. Unlike traditional hierarchical mentoring\, which pairs a senior mentor with a junior mentee\, peer mentoring reduces power dynamics and creates a more egalitarian environment. This approach can be especially beneficial in academic and research settings\, where social and cultural factors may influence traditional mentoring dynamics.\n\nIn this talk\, I will explore the impact of peer mentoring in Astronomy\, highlighting the League of Underrepresented Minoritized Astronomers (LUMA) as an example. LUMA is an international peer-mentoring program specifically designed for URM women in astronomy\, physics\, and planetary science\, including graduate students\, postdoctoral researchers\, research scientists\, and faculty. I will outline LUMA’s mission\, structure\, and key programming\, underscoring why such peer-based initiatives are essential for fostering inclusivity and professional growth within underrepresented communities.
