Additional information

These learning sessions were originally developed as a tool to help build colleagues capability in understanding the various topics connected to Diversity & Inclusion; they go back to basics and make no assumptions about what people may or may not know. There are elements of audience participation, some sessions more than others, and colleagues can use whatever function they feel happiest, be that unmuting and speaking or popping things into the chat box. The most important element of these sessions are that they are safe spaces for you to learn and discuss. There is no such thing as a silly question!
