Through a series of training modules involving theoretical sessions, coupled with assessment exercises and discussions, this journey allowed the executive team to develop a balanced approach to organizational transformation and assisted our team in creating action plans to make our team better.”

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion/Equité, diversité et inclusion:
The Future Ready Project recognizes and prioritizes Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) as a fundamental framework for creating a future that is fair, welcoming, and inclusive to people of all genders, races, sexual orientations, gender expressions, faiths, and socio-economic statuses. To improve our EDI approaches, we collaborate with other organizations to adopt best practices and adapt to evolving times and demographics. Although we have a lot of work to do, we are taking an important step forward by making EDI a part of our daily practices.
Le projet Parés pour le futur reconnaît et privilégie l'équité, la diversité et l'inclusion (EDI) en tant que cadre fondamental pour créer un avenir juste, accueillant et inclusif pour les personnes de tous les genres, races, orientations sexuelles, expressions de genre, croyances et statuts socio-économiques. Pour améliorer nos approches en matière d'EDI, nous collaborons avec d'autres organisations afin d'adopter les meilleures pratiques et de nous adapter à l'évolution du temps et de la démographie. Bien qu'il nous reste beaucoup de travail à accomplir, nous faisons un grand pas en avant en intégrant l'EDI dans nos pratiques quotidiennes.
