About the event
In this session we will discuss the critical and challenging journey of honouring diversity. While the motivations and justifications for honouring everyone's identity are clear, creating an environment where each of us feel comfortable being who we are is far more difficult.

True barriers to honouring diversity exist and must be engaged with rather than ignored for transformational change to be realized.
