Race Discrimination

How to be an anti-racist in the workplace

Diversity and representation in the workplace is important, but not enough to tackle racism alone. In this session, Australia's Race Discrimination Commissioner, Giridharan Sivaraman, explains an anti-racism approach which confronts the structural racism embedded in workplaces, and allows people of negatively racialised backgrounds to thrive. This event was brought to you by Multicultural Affairs Queensland in partnership with the Australian Human Rights Commission for Multicultural Queensland Month 2024.
