Do you want to upskill and gain knowledge around Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion?
The SSCP, funded by the Starting Well Board, are offering free training.
In this interactive workshop participants will explore conversations about Inclusion in a safe and open space and learn some key principles which they can then embed and apply in their specific workplace context. This workshop encourages participation and through a mixture of reflective personal and group activities as well as looking at scenarios, participants will increase their confidence to speak about and develop actions in service of inclusion.
Objectives:
A shared understanding for all staff of key concepts of DEI including privilege, microaggressions, equity and effective allyship.
Engaging with DEI at the emotional level to develop increased confidence to speak more confidently with a grounding in an understanding about areas of inequity including but: not limited to race, ability, class, gender, gender identity; sexuality - with a prioritisation of race.
Increased ability to move towards effective action in the DEI space and embed a culture of allyship across all teams to proactively understand and challenge systemic issues.
Please Note: Attendees will be invited to an informal reflection session, held on Microsoft teams, at a later stage. Although it is not a requirement to attend, this session will support us in ensuring learning is fully embedded.
This training has been incredibly well received. Here is one review:
We (early help workers) attended Equality, Diversity and Inclusion training yesterday with Bilal Harry Khan. We thought it was interesting, useful and thought provoking. He was a great facilitator and spoke with authenticity and had good examples and answers to our questions. It was lovely to share experiences and thoughts with people across services in Sunderland and to hear from professionals from different race and ethnic backgrounds tell us about their experiences living/working in Sunderland. It was a safe space, and we were encouraged to 'get things wrong' so that we could share our ideas without the fear of saying the wrong thing. This enabled us to have some tricky/uncomfortable conversations. We have come away from the training wanting to implement and share some of these ideas and ways of working with our team.
We currently have the following sessions available to book:
Thursday 30th January 2025 (9:30am - 12:30pm) - Mayors Parlour, City Hall, Plater Way Sunderland SR1 3AA.
