Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion ANR Trainings
Just as UC ANR responds to demographic and social changes that introduce different languages, cultures, values, and attitudes to the workplace and new audiences in the community, so do you.

Understanding and appreciating diversity requires an understanding of yourself and the ways in which you and others view the world. Your ability to use a variety of strategies to effectively deal with diverse situations in and out of the workplace and out in the UC ANR community is very important.

Equally important is the ability to share these effective strategies openly, to leverage the diversity that exists within the organization.
