I can ensure that my activities do not discriminate against any particular group by performing a diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) audit of the activity and its related materials. To conduct an effective DEI audit, I should assess for potential biases in terms of language used, imagery presented, themes chosen or excluded and who or what is centrally featured. Additionally I can reach out to different groups directly to understand their perspective about the activity. Additionally conducting workshops about inclusion or holding safe space circles can foster understanding within the group on ways to address marginalized experiences proactively.

The most effective way to avoid discrimination is to recognize the importance of diverse experiences and perspectives in community decision-making. Additionally, consulting with those affected and listening to their experiences is essential to creating policies or activities that do not exacerbate systemic inequalities.
