What is a DEI activity?

Diversity, equity, and inclusion activities (or DEI activities for short) are exercises you can do with your team to promote a workplace culture that values every employee’s unique individuality while also creating a sense of acceptance and belonging.

What are virtual diversity and inclusion activities?

Virtual diversity and inclusion activities are team exercises and events that can be done online through platforms such as Zoom, Slack, and email. Examples include virtual guest speakers, book clubs, and panel discussions.

How do you engage employees in diversity and inclusion?

Contrary to popular belief, promoting diversity and inclusion amongst employees isn’t hard – employees themselves are often more vocal in expressing their views on diversity and inclusion. The key is to embrace empathy – when people see things from a different perspective, they become more open to inclusion.
