“Promoting diversity and inclusion means creating environments where a wide range of individuals are represented, respected, and valued, ensuring everyone feels included, has equitable access to opportunities, and is empowered to participate fully. It involves acknowledging and celebrating differences in characteristics like race, gender, age, and background, while also fostering a culture of belonging where all voices are heard and contributions are recognized.”
“Privileges . . . are the specific benefits or advantages that come with possessing privilege. These can include access to better education, healthcare, job opportunities, and social networks. Privileges can also be more subtle, such as not having to worry about being discriminated against or harassed due to one’s race or gender. Privileges can be both tangible and intangible, and they often work together to reinforce existing power structures and inequalities.”
