In an increasingly interconnected world, we have a shared responsibility to ensure technology is a force that works to benefit everyone—countering structural sources of inequity, where needed. As a result, enhancing diversity and inclusion (D&I) in every aspect of technology is essential, and everyone should be part of the conversation. We cover unconscious bias, privilege, equity, allyship, covering, and microaggressions. Come jump-start your personal D&I journey as we explain the basics in simple terms with examples relevant for technologists.
