Course Description

In this course the participants can articulate the difference between diversity and inclusion and explain how they work together as a complementary set of principles. Participants can unpack the different components of a person’s identity, such as biological sex, gender, race, culture and neurological diversities, and identify the legal instruments that are available to protect these range of diverse identities in law. Participants can understand the steps that are involved in effective diversity and inclusion management practices in the workplace, as well as some of the common challenges that are likely to arise and strategies to prepare. Participants can identify some of the biggest obstacles to creating diverse and inclusive legal practices, as well as some initiatives that are currently underway to change this and understand the benefits of taking considerate action to build more diverse workplaces for legal professionals.
