Culture & Inclusion
Diversity comprises the inclusion of a wide variety of cultures, ethnicities and groups, races, religious beliefs, and socio-economic backgrounds. Learning about our differences is a wonderful way to bring everyone together to share cultural celebrations and traditions, diversity, tolerance, and inclusion, and to give each of us the opportunity to discover the world beyond ourselves..
