Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Diversity
It is understanding, accepting & valuing differences between people: of different races, ethnicities, genders, ages, religions, disabilities, and sexual orientations, with differences in education, personalities, skill sets, experiences, and knowledge base
Inclusion
A dynamic state of operating in which diversity is leveraged to create a fair healthy & high-performing organization or community. An inclusive environment ensures equitable access to resources & opportunities for all. It also enables individuals & groups to feel safe, respected , engaged, motivated & valued for who they are and for their contributions toward organizational societal goals.
Equity
Equity is about fairness and justice. It is about taking deliberate actions to remove systemic, group, and individual barriers and obstacles that hinder opportunities and disrupt well-being. Equity is achieved through the identification and elimination of policies, practices, attitudes, and cultural messages that create and reinforce unfair outcomes. The difference between equality and equity must be emphasized. Although both promote fairness, equality achieves this through treating everyone the same, regardless of need and circumstances. Equity achieves this through treating people differently dependent on need, circumstance and consideration of historical and systemic inequities.
