Bio
Nabina Liebow (she/her) is the College of Arts and Sciences Leadership and Ethical Development Program Director (CAS LEAD) and a Senior Professorial Lecturer in the Department of Philosophy and Religion. Her research focuses on racism and intersects with critical philosophy of race, social philosophy, applied ethics, and moral psychology. Nabina is passionate about making ethics education accessible and exciting to students from all backgrounds.

CAS LEAD is a cohort based four-year certificate program designed to teach and empower students to become effective, ethical leaders. Students in the program work with a close-knit cohort in seminars and on community-based learning opportunities. They learn to lead productively and with emotional-intelligence as well as to develop solutions that promote justice and equity.

Nabina is also an antiracist educator and consultant and has worked with a variety of DC area organizations including the Edlavtich Jewish Community Center of Washington DC, The Barker Adoption Foundation, and Asia Families as well as with individual clients. She is committed to bringing antiracism education and ethics training to a wide audience both inside and outside of academia.
