Being familiar with concepts such as equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) should be a foundational part of non-profit work. But it is often the case that staff in the non-profit sector have not had the chance to fully explore these concepts in a way that renders them more actionable. Join this session to engage in a meaningful exploration of these concepts and how they intersect with the reality of non-profit work.

  • Gain, through concrete examples and scenarios, a foundational understanding of equity, diversity, and inclusion
