The NCBI/Emory Campus Affiliate provides diversity workshops that address discrimination and intergroup conflict. NCBI/Emory consults with department heads and/or supervisors to develop customized workshops based on department needs. These workshops can vary in length from half-hour meetings to day-long workshops and are guided by several core prinicples and key insights:

CORE PRINCIPLES:

• Every issue counts. NCBI/Emory addresses a wide range of diversity issues in the course of its programs, including race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic class, age, sexual orientation and religion.


• Personal stories change attitudes. Listening to accounts of discrimination can impart a new perspective on how devastating the impact and move people with prejudicial attitudes to become allies of those they have mistreated.


• Eliminating mistreatiment means ending "leadership oppression." Leaders often experience isolation and a lack of support, sometimes bordering on abuse. NCBI/Emory trains leaders to handle conflict and respond effectively to attacking behaviors.
