Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Virtual Summit

A Call to Awareness, Advocacy, Action, and Transformation for Inclusive Leadership. Join the ILA community and others who are passionate and purposeful about Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) from a global perspective as we examine the intersectionality of the components of diversity for two days of empowering speeches, deep dive workshops, and information-rich roundtable discussions.
Theme Statement & Call to Action
On 25th and 26th of August 2022, ILA hosted a live online conference that explored how leadership & practice drive inclusion and belonging for the greater good. Hear from thought leaders who are raising AWARENESS for DEIB through LEARNING & ADVOCACY that impact social justice and equity; deep dive into workshops to learn innovative practices and cutting-edge theories addressing the ‘how’ organizations and global communities come together to cultivate leadership in ACTION to drive meaningful change; ultimately co-creating, sharing, and implementing best practices for creating and sustaining equitable, diverse, and inclusive groups, organizations, communities, and societies. Further explore leadership research, theory, learnings, and practice how driving change at an individual and organizational level, can contribute to inclusion in the corporate, non-profit, and NGO sectors, as well as society at large, while gaining a deeper insight about global inclusion practices and DEIB journeys in various markets. Engage in post-event networking opportunities for continued engagement, sharing of best practices, and research collaboration.
