Salon Conversation: Diversity and Inclusion

Diversity is the presence of differences within a given setting. For example, in the workplace that can mean differences in ethnicity, gender, backgrounds, or any other number of things. Inclusion is the practice of ensuring that people feel a sense of belonging and support from the organization or community.

Have you ever had to handle a situation when an individual was not accepting of another’s diversity? How can we promote diversity and inclusion in our communities? At home? Why is it important?

During this week’s Salon Conversation, we’ll discuss and explore the theme of ‘diversity and inclusion’.

Are you interested in participating in thought-provoking, interactive conversations all while making new friends and building our community? If so, Mindful Modern Living invites you to join our Salon Conversations where we’ll have insightful and intriguing conversations and the occasional debate.

The first salons can be traced to the early 17th century, when Parisian women gathered to discuss social, political, artistic, and literary topics. Salon gatherings offer space for genuine exploration, the co-mingling of ideas, and the development of new thinking.

Mindful Modern Living is a community of unique voices and strives to remain inclusive, inviting, and safe for those who wish to discuss and/or debate topics. No matter what, our discourse will always remain respectful. Regardless of point of view, mean-spirited agitation or intentionally hurtful responses are a quick way to end further discussion and you’ll be asked to leave.
