equity, diversity and inclusion are incredibly important to creating belonging
- 00:07 - 00:13
diversity is about the unique identities represented in a collective or a group.
- 00:13 - 00:15
Diversity can only exist in relationship to
- 00:15 - 00:18
others that the pool of diverse candidates,
- 00:18 - 00:20
not a diverse candidate.
- 00:22 - 00:24
So how does that relate to the others?
- 00:25 - 00:26
Inclusion
- 00:26 - 00:30
is the thoughts, perspectives and ideas of all individuals mattering
- 00:30 - 00:33
and having the ability to impact positive change.
- 00:35 - 00:37
And then equity
- 00:37 - 00:42
is a principle a process and an outcome of fairness and justice
- 00:42 - 00:46
that allows for equal outcomes among people and ensures people have
- 00:46 - 00:50
people across differences, have what they need to succeed,
- 00:51 - 00:53
otherwise known as cultural equity.
- 00:54 - 00:57
So just a little bit more about cultural equity
- 00:57 - 01:01
is a principle of process and an outcome of fairness and justice that when applied
- 01:02 - 01:05
allows for the opportunity of equal outcomes among people,
- 01:05 - 01:09
ensures people across differences have what they need to succeed.
- 01:09 - 01:14
And it is a principle that must be interrogated to ensure it is being enacted.
- 01:14 - 01:16
It is not a fixed thing.
- 01:19 - 01:21
So when you look at this image, you can see equality.
- 01:21 - 01:25
Everybody getting the same resources versus equity.
- 01:25 - 01:28
People getting resources allocated based on what they need
- 01:31 - 01:34
and all of that comes together to create belonging
- 01:35 - 01:36
a space where the views,
- 01:36 - 01:39
beliefs and values of individuals can access
- 01:39 - 01:42
the power to impact positive change and innovation
- 01:43 - 01:45
and belonging is what we are all aiming for.
- 01:46 - 01:49
It is an outcome we want to create in our
- 01:49 - 01:53
spaces so that people feel truly a part of the community
