Klein is a product of experiential project-based education herself, and she lives and breathes the student-centered pedagogies used to educate her. She became a teacher during graduate school in 1990, quickly finding the intersection between her love of writing and her fascination with educational transformation and its potential impact on social change. A former head of school with extensive international experience and over 30 years in education--including 19 in the classroom--Jennifer facilitates dynamic, interactive workshops for teachers, leaders and students, working to amplify student voice, to provide the tools for high-quality project-based learning in all cultural and socio-economic contexts, and to shift school culture to support such practices. Motivated by her belief that all children deserve a meaningful, relevant education like the one she experienced herself, and that giving them such an education will catalyze positive change in their communities and beyond, Jennifer strives to inspire educators to shift their practices in schools worldwide.Jennifer's first book, The Global Education Guidebook, was published in 2017, and her second, The Landscape Model of Learning: Designing Student-Centered Experiences for Cognitive and Cultural Inclusion, written with co-author Kapono Ciotti, was published in 2022.Enjoying the show?

In this episode, we welcome Elizabeth Lee. We'll explore the intersection of nutrition research and coaching, and the non-judgmental environment vital for holistic nutrition coaching. We will also discuss exactly what culturally inclusive nutrition coaching looks like. As a registered dietitian, Lee has spent the last decade in various nutrition-related roles ranging from patient counseling to employee well-being programming to teaching. She is drawn to the many disciplines that share intersections with food, such as culture, sustainability, politics, and socioeconomics. She started Communal Table Wellness as a way to explore all those intersections in her work with individual coaching and organization consulting. “…as an East Asian, rice is also big in our culture, so I would not advocate for my clients who are from those backgrounds to have to ditch the things that mean so much to them, that bring so much enjoyment to them.” On This Episode You Will Learn: Culturally Inclusive Nutrition Coaching Non-Judgmental Approaches to Nutrition Teaching, Research and Counseling Around Nutrition Connect with Yumlish!

Ethnotek is so much more than just a bag! It's a celebration of culture, it's a community, it's a global movement!The one thing all of the Ethnotek weavers and artisans have in common is the fact that their craft is disappearing. Every year they see less and less local demand for their fabrics due to low yield and long lead times.Traditional techniques are quickly being replaced by machines and factory labor in major cities, drastically reducing the number of jobs and industry in the regions where it is needed most.By creating new demand for these traditional handcraft practices, the brand and its customers are in a sense forging an effort to keep them alive and well and in the same villages from which they came.The last and most important part of the mission is to spread the idea that we should all celebrate each other's differences more often. The only way culture can stay alive is if we keep it that way.Culture runs deep; from the tribes of Yunnan Province to the Subways of New York City. From the Ghats of Varanasi to the Cafes of Paris. To ensure the survival of these incredibly interesting differences we must learn about them and retell their story. This is why we see our bags as a flag. A flag that you wave which says, "I care"​.Check out Ethnotek's Sourcing Roadmap: This is an article to describe Ethnotek's internal ethical guidelines for working with artisans and is to provide suggestions to designers & business owners who are looking to practice Cultural Inclusion in their supply chain."We in no way claim to be experts in this department and are still learning, but we do have over 10 years of first-hand experience and not only does our system work well, everyone is happy and having fun in the process!"Listen to more Causeartist podcasts here.Powered by: ReFi Jobs - ReFi jobs curates the best new regenerative finance jobs at leading companies and startups - Learn more---> Check out the Causeartist Partners here.---> Subscribe to the Causeartist Newsletter here.Listen to more Causeartist podcast shows hereFollow Grant on Twitter and LinkedInFollow Causeartist on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram

Do you ever sit back and observe your surroundings? We often do. We take a break from life and just look at things while admiring them. But the moment we end our break, we go back to our usual lifestyle and stop thinking about what we saw and felt. But there is a breed in this world which does not stop thinking. This breed is called 'Authors'. Our guest for today Ann D'Silva and our host both are Authors. They have both agreed that 'the authors are the people who are not afraid to put what they feel and know in front of the world even if they get brickbats against it'. Ann D'Silva is a well-known author. She is of Indian origin who, not long ago, shifted to Istanbul, Turkey. Ann has written multiple books. She is involved with Cultural Inclusion and Diversity. She also hosts a woman empowering talk show. Her show is called, 'Ann talks Women Enough'. She is a Global Goodwill Ambassador. She has been awarded many times for the work she does. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/tbcy/support

With AI determining many system-led decisions, from who gets a job, a loan or business opportunity, the need to ensure diversity and inclusivity in the creation of algorithmic rules becomes more important. In our fifth episode, we have Glenda Crisp, Chief Data Officer at National Australia Bank. She started her career in tech as a programmer in a bank in Canada and then went on to get an MBA. Before being recruited by NAB, she worked at TD Bank in Toronto. As the Chief Data Officer at National Australia Bank, both her business and technological side come together. Diversity is a key topic at NAB. They have 6 pillars of inclusion that they target, which are: Gender Balance, NABility and Neurodiversity, NAB Pride, Cultural Inclusion, African Inclusion and Indigenous. When it comes to bias you have to actively look for it and manage it, given that AI learns from data, historical data is a result of human decisions and humans are biased. NAB has an ethical framework for the use of data, machine learning and AI. Quotes: "Nothing moves faster than technology [so] pay attention to the big themes that are going on across industries." "We can’t just ask AI to be more fair but we actually need to prescribe math that is fair." "The one thing I always say to young women when I get the chance is ‘please do not become complacent.’" Thanks to our sponsors: Shine Solutions Group Talent Insights SAS Women in Analytics (WIA) Network Growing Data Read the full episode summary here: #SheLeads Ep 5 Enjoy the fifth episode of our #SheLeads Series! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/datafuturology/message

House to House | August 30th Recorded at Midday Studios

The Gospel According to Mark • August 30th, 2020 Inclusion is a tricky word in the evangelicalism of 2020 but it wasn't for Jesus. Mark helps us to reimagine the citizenry of God's Kingdom here in chapter 9. To extend welcome to a child - and thereby share in their status - is not merely a pious gesture; no, it's an act aligned with the heart of the Kingdom of God. Or to say that another way, inclusivity is at the heart of the Kingdom. To be inclusive in a community of Jesus is to extend the welcome of Jesus. Period. Without exception.

When I invited Louise O'Reilly to teach a class on culturally inclusive writing to my copywriting crew, I knew what a talent she was. We'd originally met through a businesswomen's online group for women in WA and once had a fiery Messenger debate about labels, back in 2015. Since then, Louise has continued to question labels, perspectives, tone, and narrative, through her work on human rights and the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, on radio, and through her consultancy. She's a natural-born writer and speaker with a specific flair for moving a reader from curious to powered with knowledge and fired up to do something with it. Louise is a Warrwa-Noongar Aboriginal woman based in Boorloo (Perth, Western Australia). Through her experiences with identity and self-discovery, she realised society wasn't always accepting of her, her community or her culture. In this episode, Louise is with us to have a bit of a chat about culturally inclusive language, especially in the words we write. Specific appreciation to Louise who helped me with the Acknowledgement of Country in this episode, meaning for the first time it's spoken, not just living in words on my website.

In these times of divisive politics and unapologetic incivility by public figures, we’re proud to discuss Commonalities with Thought Leader Sheema Khan on this week’s INSPIRING LEADERS Podcast. “Rather than running on auto pilot and delegating critical thinking to others, it starts with the Leaders to take the time, to evaluate, think for themselves and use their intuition.” Do you believe the “Official Story” that you are told? Or do you focus on the facts and make up your own mind? As leaders, the former can lead to divisiveness and disaster and the latter can bring inclusion and innovation. “I’m inspired by leaders who fearlessly speak truth to power.” Sheema Khan was born in India and moved to Canada in the 1960s. She later earned a Masters in Physics and a Ph.D. in Chemical Physics at Harvard. She is a Scientist and a person of Faith, and she insists that these are mutually exclusive. Sheema is currently a Patent Agent with Shapiro Cohen LLP, and monthly columnist for the national Newspaper, the Globe and Mail. She Authored the book "Of Hockey and Hijab”, and her interests include hockey, soccer and feminism. “Not being afraid of going against the grain at times is key.” We first met Sheema during preparation of her 2016 TEDx Talk which deeply touched the audience and earned a long, powerful standing ovation. Not only is she a compelling speaker and writer, but Sheema has a unique and refreshing perspective on the Commonalities that we all share. “We have much more in common in terms of human values, human dignity and aspirations. If we remember that, build toward that and help each other to achieve that, we will build a model society.” Join us while we discuss Cultural Inclusion with this humble and brilliant thinker. It just may be the most inspiring 20 minutes that you will have all week.

Can you handle this Truth?? Chief Yuya begins his culmination of the 2016's monthly insight concepts. He shares the evaluation of our culture is an estimation of our own truth.  He speaks on the nature of doing groundbreaking work and how the actual "work" can serve as a filter to determine who should be present and who may need to find experiences that speak more to their path. He shares, "If the culture that you are living makes your enemy/oppressor comfortable there is a problem". Chief Yuya speaks on the delusion aspects of inclusionist cultural ambitions and the undermining of the truth we are shown by way of active dissonance. The declining popularity of truth exposes the true priorities of the masses.
