Everyone comes to DEIBJ work from a different place – informed by their lived experiences, education, prior engagement in DEIBJ work, and other factors such as disposition and ways of seeing and being. 1:1 attention will offer a space for processing new strands of knowledge and how best to apply the knowledge in their work with others.
