Anna-Liza Badaloo on Why Transformative JEDI Change Goes Beyond Policy
Event Details
Date: October 17 from 1 – 2:30 PM ET (Zoom Webinar)
Cost: Free
Organizations often start their Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (JEDI) journey with policy change. But when it comes to implementing and maintaining momentum on JEDI initiatives, policy is just the tip of the iceberg.
What really creates transformational JEDI change? Fostering an organizational culture where open discussions are encouraged, where people with different identities can share perspectives in a brave space, and where we can encounter each other as humans instead of just colleagues.
Designed for JEDI-curious ENGO staff, this session will introduce you to the research and best practices around the importance of going beyond policy and provide concrete tips and resources for ensuring that your JEDI initiatives focus on organizational cultural change.
Bonus: Hear why these approaches work from our JEDI Community of Practice panel and learn what changes they have made at their organizations.
This is the first webinar in a series for JEDI-curious ENGOs keen to implement JEDI initiatives but not sure where to start. In some cases JEDI projects may have been initiated but fell off the table in the face of other organizational priorities. The JEDI-curious series will introduce you to the key JEDI issues and barriers in the ENGO sector and link you to opportunities to gather with your peers for support, advice, and community.
