Past Conferences

Is Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion too Western-centric?: Bridging EDI across cultures

Time and Date: 5.45 - 8.00pm, Wednesday 20 November

Location: Centre Building, CKK 1.04

Description

Join us for a panel and interactive discussion organised by the London School of Economics Department of Management’s Equity, Diversity & Inclusion team.

Who does EDI benefit? Does it benefit marginalised communities or those in power? Are EDI practices developed in the West still applicable in the Global South? How can EDI practices be expanded or adapted for different cultures and contexts around the world? How can we embrace “cultural humility” to create an inclusive EDI practice?

This year’s theme takes a critical look at EDI practices and whether and how they can be applied in a globalising world.

This event will feature expert speakers and interactive discussions that bridge theory and practice. There will also be the opportunity to network with EDI practitioners, researchers, and DoM students with a passion for EDI.

Whether you are a student, faculty member, or a seasoned EDI/HR practitioner, you will gain valuable insights into EDI interventions and challenges across various cultures.

Audience: Students, Alumni, Staff, Employers, Sponsors.
