Equality v. Equity: Reframing Your Diversity Focus-2023CLC-A03
Cost -
Program Date - June 05, 2023
Early discussions around diversity talked about the importance of equality and offering equal opportunity to all, regardless of race, religion, gender, etc. Treating people equally is only one step along the diversity continuum, and to actually achieve diverse and successful workplaces, we also need to focus on equity to overcome historic and structural disadvantages based on race, gender, etc. This seminar examines the role of equality versus equity in our efforts toward a more inclusive and just society for all. Participants will learn about reframing their focus on equity, rather than numbers, as a means to achieve meaningful participation for all legal professionals.
