📌 What is diversity?
Diversity is the state of having or being composed of different elements. Diversity refers to different values, attitudes, cultural perspectives, beliefs, ethnicities, nationalities, sexual orientation, gender identity, ability, health, social and economic status, skills, and other specific personal characteristics.
Individuals are unique, which means that communities are diverse. In order to meet the needs of every member of an affected community, we must ensure that diversity is acknowledged and represented in relief efforts. This means recruiting a diverse team and ensuring that diverse members of each community are given a voice.
