In this episode our good friend Amira Barger, Head of Business Development at the Public Health Institute talks with us about one of the most under-addressed topics in the nonprofit sector. Equity and inclusion. She shares her personal perspective on what it means to create equitable environments in the nonprofit workplace, why equity is important and inclusion is essential, and what some of the biggest roadblocks are.
In our conversation, Amira mentions several great resources that listeners can take advantage of to build more equitable workplaces and practice greater inclusion in their daily lives. Links to those are below.
