Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

The elimination of racial discrimination and racism is an essential part of CLTO’s efforts to cultivate an equitable and inclusive learning environment and work culture. This is noted in our Equity, Diversity & Inclusion statement and our Anti-Racism Committee’s mandate.

For additional glossary of terms that we follow please click here.

Further to this mandate we have invited contributors to share their expertise and understandings on Equity, Diversity and Inclusion and how these topics intersect with the disabled community.
