Join us for a challenging and engaging seminar event on exploring issues related to evolving contemporary language and terminologies used within equality, diversity and inclusion. 

Speakers will enquire how language has historically incorporated discriminatory or prejudiced terminology, reflecting the biases and power dynamics of the societies in which they developed. Systematic use of this language perpetuates harmful stereotypes or prejudices and contributes to a culture of conscious or unconscious discrimination and bias. The panel will also explore how enacting a positive choice in language can challenge these problematic ideas and help enable a more inclusive, equitable and empathetic future-based society.
