Conference planification and facilitation

GECI supports the development and facilitation of conferences from the development of the agenda to post conference report. Conferences are facilitated in a way that focuses on building the foundational blocks of an Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Accessibility and Antiracism (IDEA) Strategic Plan, with a particular lens on anti-racism. This requires inward facing initiatives related to workplaces and employees, on structural change and not just cultural change, on including those specifically challenging anti-Indigeneity, and on equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI), to the extent that the work encompasses a strong, clear focus on systemic racism.

Our team is ready and excited to embark on this journey with your organization. We understand the values, perspectives, and aptitudes required to create a safe and healthy environment for all staff, leading to a more inclusive and anti-racist environment. We are honored to offer our experience and expertise to help build leadership skills and build inner resilience and capacity for IDEA change.

We rely on our expertise in guiding organizations through successful IDEA transformations. Key objectives of this work are to support the development of practitioners, allies, executive members and senior leaders into effective IDEA champions and to provide management with the skills and resources required for a commitment to IDEA.
