Beyond Diversity 101: Micro-inequities, Implicit Bias, and Moving toward Equity
Connect to Virtual Event
Carleton has once again partnered with Anne Phibbs, Founder and President of Strategic Diversity Initiatives to offer three training sessions that focus on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
Many of us have been involved with diversity training that focuses on cultural difference and respecting all perspectives. While this is a good start, we cannot move toward true equity in our workplaces, organizations, and personal relationships until we address historical and institutional inequality.
In order to address the myriad ways that certain people are marginalized based on social identities such as race, gender, disability, religion, class, sexual orientation, etc., every one of us needs to understand our own identities, how we all demonstrate bias that is often unconscious, and how we are all capable of moving toward equity.
This is a hybrid course: you can choose to attend in person or via zoom, but if you can attend in person we highly encourage you to do so, as there is interactive work involved. If Zoom is an option you need, we are excited to be able to offer you that option for these trainings as well.
