Every now and then, I feel the need to simplify the DEI acronyms and today was one of those days.

Diversity refers to the presence of different people within a group or organisation, for example, people of different races, cultures, backgrounds, abilities, and identities.

Equity is about fairness and justice, for example, ensuring that everyone has access to the same opportunities by recognising and addressing systemic barriers.

Inclusion is the intentional practice of welcoming, respecting, and valuing people who have historically been excluded, whether due to race, sexuality, ability, or other aspects of their identity.
