Tasneem Chopra is a Professional Disruptor and an AntiRacism Champion. Her message is clear - there are so many Diversity & Inclusion roles out there, why does so much of the focus stop with Gender? This is a powerful conversation where we question how “equitable” became a dirty word, how giving space up at the table isn't popular thinking but it's necessary to get change. We talk about growing up in rural Victoria and the experience of wearing a HIjab in Melbourne, Australia post 9/11. Tasneem's leadership stands out. I often say being in the room with other leaders catapulted my growth. Spending time with Tasneem will do that for anyone. Tasneem was the inaugural 2021 Ambassador for Women of Colour, was awarded an OAM (Order of Australia Medal) in 2020 and has been named an Anti-Racism Champion by the Australian Human Rights Commission. Tasneem also has a Board Chairing role for the Australian Muslim Women's Centre for Human Rights. Words are powerful, how you say them makes an even bigger impact. ----------------------- Craving inspiration?

Sahil and Huda dive deep into the latest topic of equality with Tasneem Chopra, a leading Australian Cross-cultural Consultant. Tasneem is an expert in addressing issues of diversity, equity and inclusion across organisational leadership, including intersectionality within government, corporate, arts and community sectors. In this episode they discuss issues POC face relating to discrimination; not just in society, but also in the workplace.

We tie it all up nicely with Tasneem's vision for what an equitable, and inclusive future should look like, and what she's working towards achieving. Join them for an entree of colourful conversations about social issues with a large side of humour.Script for the hearing impaired is allocated to this for all listeners/readers to enjoy.
Welcome to La Trobe University’s Clever Conversations. In this episode, from our Ideas and Society program, you will hear a discussion on racism in contemporary Australia. Has racism entered the political mainstream? Or, is its influence found only among the far-right extremist groups and lone wolves? This discussion follows the horrific terrorist attack at two mosques in the New Zealand city of Christchurch, on the 15th of March, 2019. The Christchurch shootings revealed that even one well-armed racist can wreak havoc in any country, anywhere. Although almost everyone in Australian politics and the media condemns racism, disagreement exists on the question of whether racism in Australia is widespread and structural, or found exclusively on the far-right extremist fringe. Discussing these issues is a panel of four experts, featuring Professor Tim Soutphommasane, who is a political theorist and Australia’s former race discrimination commissioner, and Tom Switzer, the director of the conservative think-tank, the Centre for Independent Studies, and former well-respected opinion editor at The Australian. You’ll also hear from La Trobe University alumna Tasneem Chopra, who is a cross cultural consultant on issues of cultural competence, and Associate Professor Chelsea Bond, a distinguished academic, who has worked in Indigenous health promotion, culture, identity and community development.
