Faculty, staff, students, and colleagues across UNLV and the Nevada System of Higher Education are encouraged to submit proposals and participate in this year’s Summit. The extension provides an additional opportunity for those who intended to submit but were unable to meet the original deadline.

The 2026 Southern Nevada Diversity Summit will be held on Friday, November 13, 2026, at the College of Southern Nevada North Las Vegas Campus. This year’s theme is “Cultivating Community: Strengthening Pathways to Learning, Employment, and Community Prosperity.”
