Empowering Equity Conference 2023 | Pearl S. Buck Intl | 21 February 2023 | Virtual

Join us for this cross-cultural educational event! Over the course of five half-day virtual workshops, learn how your business, organization, or non-profit can engage more thoughtfully and effectively with staff, clients, and the community in an increasingly global and intercultural society.

The United States is in the midst of a demographic shift in the workplace. With a more diverse workforce and customer-base, intercultural competency and comprehensive diversity, equity, and inclusion programs are essential. These will ensure the success and effective management of organizations and businesses, and they uplift communities.

Presenters will highlight industry best practices, and specialized workshops will detail the application of these for law enforcement, human resources, and health care professionals.
