Deploying Black Intellectual Capital
A New Model Integrates Academic Mobility, Academic Tourism, and Cultural Heritage.
Black intellectual capital belongs within international classrooms, research collaborations, and leadership forums across the world.
Closing the Gap in Global Academic Mobility
Black Doctorates Deployed in Destinations (B3D) is a global academic mobility, academic tourism, and cultural heritage tourism initiative that connects Black doctoral professionals and scholars with international universities, research institutions, professional and cross-cultural engagement opportunities throughout Diaspora-connected destinations.
Through a unique two-week framework (Week 1: Academic Deployment at partner universities and institutions; Week 2: cultural heritage exploration throughout host destinations), B3D expands access to international teaching, speaking, research, and collaborative engagement for Black doctoral professionals and scholars seeking meaningful global impact.
OUR VISION
Our vision is to expand equity in education and increase global access, visibility, and cultural connection for Black doctoral professionals and scholars through academic mobility and academic tourism.
Our mission
B3D exists to democratize access to global academic mobility and academic tourism experiences for Black doctoral professionals and scholars through curated university partnerships, international academic deployments, and culturally centered global engagement. We believe Black intellectual capital belongs within international classrooms, research collaborations, leadership forums, and cross-cultural exchange experiences throughout the world.
