First steps to addressing Racial and Ethnic Equity
Gain understanding on approaching systemic racism or ethnic discrimination and promoting Racial Equity in your organization.
After George Floyd’s murder, many organizations started paying more attention to racial discrimination and how Racial Equity can be achieved in the workplace. In light of this frequent discussion, racism as a prevalent topic requires immediate action. Racism & Ethnic Discrimination issues even affect countries with low ethnic or racial diversity. People of color find it more challenging to acquire a job in mono-ethnic states, rather than in countries with higher levels of racial diversity.
