Training Examples
-
Diversity & Inclusivity
While trying to eradicate any sign of discrimination in our society, it’s a logical step to ensure that everywhere has a diversity and inclusivity policy in place, at the very least. It is our responsibility to keep ourselves informed and updated on what happens in our streets and to fellow citizens who are part of minority communities. Staying informed and alert is a popular way to dealing with inequality, while learning and understanding other cultures, can mitigate fear and prejudice.
