Unconscious bias: understanding diversity and discrimination

Join us for this open course which aims to challenge your understanding of the meaning of diversity and intersectionality. This training will be a highly interactive exploration of equality, diversity and inclusion. Ashley will encourage you to investigate different manifestations of unconscious bias in a safe and supportive format. This is an EDI session like no other and promises to be fun as well as thought provoking.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• To explore unconscious biases in a safe and supportive environment

• To reflect on the impact of beliefs about the concepts of equality, diversity and inclusion on decision making
• To encourage open discussion about potentially difficult subjects affecting practice

PRESENTER

This event has been developed by trainer Ashley Williamson, who has been supporting professionals and students in universities, local authorities, panels and charities to question their beliefs about discrimination for the past five years.
 
Feedback from previous participants:
 
“It was such a powerful training, especially compared to the usual tick-box exercises we are asked to do. I thought Ashley was excellent.”

“These are tricky topics to discuss. I thought Ashley was really good and could talk to him all day about all this.”
