D&I Podcast Ep. 14 - Inclusion can happen now and here‘s how

<p>Aaron Bunch (co-host) emphasizes that inclusion can happen now—in an instant—with genuine positive communication directed at someone who has a different identity than you. A person feeling included really comes down to an individual having a sense of belonging and value within a group of people. Over the past year as hosts of the Fisheries Diversity and Inclusion Podcast have interviewed guests, significant themes have emerged in context to “inclusion.”</p> <p>We challenge you to use inclusion principles into your daily routine and set the following goals with people who are not like you: (1) find commonality through daily chats and do more listening than talking, (2) become a mentor, whether its formal or informal, (3) build meaningful relationships, and (4) be willing to be inclusive out loud as an ally.</p> <p>The publication discussed in the podcast can be found <a href='https://afspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/fsh.10693'>here</a>: </p> <p>As always, check out <a href='http://diversity.fisheries.org/'>http://diversity.fisheries.org</a> for information and resources.</p> <p>Find "OUTDOORS IS FOR EVERYONE" gear at <a href='https://society6.com/crsmiles'>https://society6.com/crsmiles.</a> </p> <p>All proceeds benefit the <a href='https://hutton.fisheries.org/'>AFS Hutton Program</a>.</p> <p> </p>
