Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Course Description
Overview
Diversity is recognizing our individual differences. Differences can be age, gender, race, place of origin, color, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic status, religious beliefs, marital status, family status and culture.Differences can also be in our values, talents, work experience, language and communication skills.
Diversity is about respecting, understanding, valuing and leveraging our differences in ideas, perspectives, backgrounds, cultures, skills, experiences and needs to create and maximize opportunities and potentials for individual, community and business growth. (Veenstra,201 1)
Diversity and inclusion are complex issues and intersectionality helps us understand that “social issues cannot be explored in isolation, as different identities such as race, gender, age, etc., intersect each person’s life and produce different privilege or oppression.”
Objectives
Topics
- You will spend the first part of the day getting to know participants and discussing what will take place during the workshop. Students will also have an opportunity to identify their personal learning objectives.
- In this session, we will learn what diversity, equity, and inclusion mean to the participants, what an inclusive workspace is and what a diverse workplace should look like.
- In this session, we will look at the impact of inequities in the communities that we work and live in.
- In this session, participants will watch a video that looks at race and criminal justice, discrimination in retail and public community spaces, and the impact of the misrepresentation of Black people in the media.
- Next, we will look at the pre-assignment and discover how diverse or homogenous the participating group and members of their workspaces are.
- In this session, participants will participate in the Privilege Walk, which illustrates how people are privileged or marginalized within society.
- Next, participants will learn about neurodiverse co-workers. In this session, we will look at ways to support individuals and provide ways to support them in being successful in their workspace.
- In the final session, participants will work together to develop strategies that will support, help develop, or elevate current diversity, equity, and inclusion policies and procedures in the workplace. Then, they will work independently to look inside themselves, and their workspace, and think of what they will do differently.
- At the end of the course, students will have an opportunity to ask questions and fill out an action plan.
