The goal of the workshop is to discuss the idea of diversity. Discrimination and prejudice, phenomena that are still present in public space, will be the starting point for conversations about the importance of managing diversity. Registration for the event is required (you will find the details at the end of the news).
The participants will also be introduced to the idea of implicit bias as mechanisms that hinder the creation of a diverse and inclusive environment. The meeting will lead to an understanding the negative effects of discrimination and the benefits of creating diverse private and professional spaces.
