PHSA - PC - DEI - Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Basics

Discover the meaning behind “DEI” as we delve into Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as concepts and their ultimate outcome, Belonging. This workshop will explore DEI with a focus on supporting participants’ exploration of self-identity, social location, and intersectionality.

The day will wrap up with an introduction to implicit bias and micro-aggressions.
Join us to get started on your DEI journey and build cultural and anti-racism competencies.

This workshop is a pre-requisite for all other DEI sessions.
