Canadian Diversity Learning Circles

ICA CANADA is proud to promote the upcoming pilot of ICA Associates’ Canadian Diversity Learning Circles course starting October 2017.

Using Institute of Cultural Affairs (ICA) group facilitation methods participants share stories; draw from the group’s wisdom to up with a few ‘keys to success’: and explore what can be done in any group or institution
The facilitator engages the group in a series of conversations and utilizes adult learning techniques to create a safe space where this is a ‘circle’ of teaching and learning
All participants are invited to share their perspectives
Some participants become Diversity Change Agents and prepare to lead their own project and facilitate complex discussions to promote diversity and inclusion
