Book Description
This book aims to deal with the first question—how to get started and make an impact, fast. In terms of what more can be done, the answer is - a lot. Much more definitely needs to be done to achieve equity in the workplace for minority groups. If we look at recent global incidents, such as Covid-19 and the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, we can see clearly that more needs to be done to ensure that equity, rather than equality , is the order of the day. This book looks at how you can get started on your EDI journey and identifies six areas that can get you started. There is no mystique or complicated formula and I will show you how to make that journey straightforward and uncomplicated. The old Chinese proverb ‘a journey of one thousand miles starts with a single step’ may be well used, but it is very true. I have lived the experience myself. Waiting for the perfect moment, or for the leadership team to act, does not work. If you know it has to be done, do it! Be the change agent.

Book Description
Most educators want to cultivate an antibias and antiracist classroom and school community, but they often struggle with where and how to get started. Liz helps us set ourselves up for success and prepare for the mistakes we'll make along the way. Each chapter in Start Here, Start Now addresses many of the questions and challenges educators have about getting started, using a framework for tackling perceived barriers from a proactive stance. Liz answers the questions with personal stories, sample lessons, anchor charts, resources, conversation starters, extensive teacher and activist accounts, and more. We can break the habits that are holding us back from this work and be empowered to take the first step towards reimagining the possibilities of how antibias antiracist work can transform schools and the world at large. We must remind ourselves that what is right is often not what is easy, and we must continue to dream. Amidst the chaos, our path ahead is clear. This is our chance to dream big and build something better.

Disability, Equality, and Human Rights
Author: Alison Harris
Publisher: Oxfam Publications
ISBN: 0855984856
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
This book's basic premise is that disabled people themselves know best what their needs are and that they should be involved in the planning and delivery of relief and development initiatives. The most effective support that agencies can offer is to empower them to claim their basic human rights and their civil and legal rights. The text is based on the experience of Oxfam staff working before, during and after the crisis in Kosovo; but its principles and practical training materials can be applied far more widely. Case studies from Africa and Asia arising from the work of Action and Disability and Development (ADD) show how the values of equality, empowerment and autonomy that are promoted by the social model of disability are universal in their relevance. It suggests practical materials particularly useful to trainers working in geographically isolated areas without access to sophisticated equipment. Most activities and exercises can be adapted for use in groups of people with a wide range of impairments and educational levels.
