SUMMARY:SCDN Policy Connection: Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion: Practical Guidance for Communities
DESCRIPTION:Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (DE&I) plans are essential for municipalities striving to foster equitable\, cohesive\, and prosperous communities. Join Sustainable Pittsburgh for this engaging webinar as we explore how a well-designed DE&I plan builds trust between local governments and residents by ensuring that all voices are heard and valued. Local experts will share actionable strategies and best practices for building stronger\, more inclusive communities. Participants will also learn how DE&I plans can transform communities by promoting equitable access to resources\, strengthening local governance\, and laying the foundation for long-term social and economic stability. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis webinar will provide participants with the tools and insights needed to create\, adopt\, and implement a high-quality DE&I vision and plan that aligns with Sustainable Pennsylvania certification requirements. Sustainable Pennsylvania offers a framework for implementing best practices in areas such as environmental stewardship\, social equity\, and economic development.
