Intersectionality Collective
The Intersectionality Collective is a private digital community for scholars, researchers, practitioners, and students to share ideas and resources about intersectionality research, find collaborators, share and get feedback on their work.
The Collective includes educational materials, collaboration spaces, networking events, and mentoring opportunities for scholars, researchers, practitioners in the U.S., as well as globally.
Because the Collective is funded by membership, annual subscriptions are necessary to financially sustain it. Optional annual individual subscriptions range from $250 - $1499 per year.
Whether you’re new to intersectionality and its benefits for health equity and social justice research and practice, have some or a lot of experience with intersectionality, or are leading the way — there’s a place for you in the Intersectionality Collective.
To ensure safety, confidentiality, and preserve the intellectual rigor and professionalism of our community, access to the Intersectionality Collective is by application only.
Coming Up in the Collective...
We are ONE!
And we have a gift for you!
For a limited time only, join Researcher tier and we will upgrade your subscription to Scholar tier for free! The upgrade lasts for 12 months, and entitles you to the key benefits of Scholar tier: the edited training recordings! The office hours! and other discounts on training such as at ISI 2026!
Apply for Scholar tier, or contact us about this offer if you want to apply it to your existing subscription.
A Summer of Intersectionality
On top of the Intersectionality Summer Intensive 2026, there's lots to do this summer!
We curate events and post them in the Collective Events space: workshops, lectures, conferences, office hours, symposia, tours, and more. Events are virtual, in person, hybrid, and from all over North America and globally. Some are free, some require a registration fee, but all are of interest to our community. And all are hand curated by people (not an algorithm) who care and contribute to our Collective.
Wall of Love
Jump on to our Wall of Love space and find our acknowledgments, shout-outs and other things we love. Everything from articles posted by the authors themselves, "thank you"s to mentors and coaches, and examples of great reports that inspire even dull, work related tasks - like reporting.
Why apply?
To ensure safety, confidentiality, and preserve the intellectual rigor and professionalism of our community, access is by application only.
As such, members will be invited to join, or may apply to join, with each tier-based applications:
