Overview

In this dynamic session, we delve into the intricacies of intersectionality and its pivotal role in DEI. Coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw, intersectionality highlights the overlapping social identities that create unique and often overlooked experiences. The session starts with exploring the historical context leading to the emergence of intersectionality as a critical framework.

Participants gain insights into how various social categories intersect to form layers of privilege and oppression, shaping an individual's lived experience. Moving beyond theory, practical strategies for incorporating intersectionality into DEI initiatives are provided.

Attendees learn to recognize and address the complex interplay of identities within their organizations, fostering an inclusive environment. Through interactive discussions, case studies, and real-world examples, participants develop a deep understanding of how intersectionality informs decision-making processes, policies, and interpersonal interactions. The goal is to empower individuals to become agents of change, championing diversity and inclusion with a nuanced understanding of the diverse tapestry that makes up our society. 

Why you should Attend

In the ever-evolving landscape of today's society, understanding intersectionality is not just a choice but a necessity. As we celebrate one year of enlightenment and learning together, join us for an advanced exploration of Intersectionality and DEI. 

Fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) often surround these discussions, but we assure you that this session will empower you with knowledge and tools to navigate the complexities of diversity in a confident and informed manner.
