Edmund Kim presented about the importance of diversity on FIRST teams for fostering practices in creativity, communication, collaboration, and critical thinking on teams. Edmund Kim also presented strategies for members of FIRST teams to engage as allies, sponsors, and champions to underserved and underrepresented team members. Thanks very much to Annika Pint, FIRST Robotics Canada, and Mr. Borromeo for the opportunity!
