What is implicit bias?

Implicit biases are attitudes or stereotypes that affect our understanding, actions, and decisions in an unconscious manner. People are not even aware of when these biases occur. They are prevalent and permeate throughout the workplace at all levels.

During this time participants will experience:

  • Immersion into the indigenous community by storytelling and sharing of cultural experiences by Indigenous speakers.
  • An understanding of cultural practices of the Indigenous members of our community.
  • Historical rectification based on first hand experience and teachings.
