ED&I: Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion
What is ED&I?
It stands for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion. Equity can be described as fairness. Diversity means being composed of differing qualities or characteristics. Inclusion is the act of including or accepting one into the whole. This means tackling equity issues requires an understanding of the root causes of outcome disparities within our society. Inclusion is an outcome to ensure those that are diverse actually feel and/or are welcomed. Inclusion outcomes are met when you, your institution, and your program are truly inviting to all. These are things as teachers we do or should be doing on a daily basis.
