S3.E13. Protecting Diversity | The Stumbling Spirit Podcast
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (or DEI) policies were originally devised to ensure equal opportunities and protections for everyone in the workplace and in higher education. However, such programs are under attack by the current US administration and many multinational corporations and prominent universities have followed suit by ending or rolling back their DEI initiatives. In Canada, there are efforts to protect and improve DEI programs across the board. Jade Pichette is a Trans advocate and DEI professional with Pride At Work Canada – an organization dedicated to creating more inclusive work environments for 2SLGBTQIA+ people. In our conversation, Jade talks about the DEI landscape in Canada and explains the significance of having safe and inclusive spaces for all equity deserving groups.
