Diversity: At the most fundamental level, diversity can be defined as difference. However, it is important to understand that diversity isn’t just about race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, or ability. Diversity also means the active process of creating spaces where people feel included and welcome.
Inclusion: Inclusion is the intentional creation of an environment that fluidly incorporates diverse populations and values.
Equity: Equity is the process of creating fairness and providing people with the same resources to gain equality.
