Podcast episode on EDI

Louisa Jane Smith, leading the RE Podcast, invited me to contribute in an episode on Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. 

The podcast is strictly speaking on Religious Education, but my work on Diversity and Inclusion is relevant for this area as well (even though I am not a religious scholar). 

We discuss: 

• the purpose of EDI initiatives in terms of Human Rights 
• the benefits to society and individuals in terms of self actualisation
• the challenges to EDI and how we overcome them
• how religion and both support and detract from EDI
• how we can teach our students the skills to uphold EDI
