This toolkit provides a wealth of resources to aid faculty, staff, and trainees in understanding, embracing, and appreciating the talents and contributions of all people.
What Is...
Diversity
Diversity simply means that each individual is unique and recognizing our individual differences. There are varied dimensions of differences, including race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, age, physical abilities, religious beliefs, political beliefs or other ideologies, global locations, and cultures, to name a few.
Our university goal is to embrace, understand, and celebrate the rich dimensions of diversity contained within each individual. Diversity also involves respecting and appreciating different ideas, perspectives, and values.
Inclusion
At Emory, inclusion means welcoming everyone and providing ample opportunity for everyone to engage in and benefit from our clinical, teaching and research missions.
Equity
Equity is the guarantee of fair treatment, access, opportunity and advancement for all students, faculty, and staff, while at the same time striving to identify and eliminate barriers that have prevented the full participation of some groups.
