Workshop Description:
Many of us witness or experience racial divides in our city, communities and even organizations. We’re also keen to address these divisions in an effort to build respectful and equitable relationships and communities. Gaining awareness and skills around these issues will help us be more inclusive and respectful in consultations, workplaces, and programs.
This workshop will assist organizations by:
- Exploring systemic racism and privilege that work to separate people
- Conducting an organizational assessment
- Providing practical tools for strengthening organizational capacity to work effectively within racial difference
