Access and Inclusion Awareness Committee Presents: Tip of the Week

Access & Inclusion Tips of the Week
Every Tuesday, we drop a little wisdom on how to make the world more accessible for everyone. Whether you’re a newbie or an accessibility aficionado, our Access and Inclusion Advisory Committee has you covered with tips, tricks, and the occasional nudge to get your wheels turning. Because accessibility isn’t just a box to check—it’s a mindset, a culture, and, let's face it, the right thing to do. Tune in every Tuesday and let’s make inclusion the new normal. Don’t worry—we promise no boring jargon. Just practical, punchy, and (dare we say?) fun advice!

You can find all of the tips on the Access and Inclusion Advisory Committee webpage.

This week's tip:
Pride is About Celebration and History

Pride month celebrates diversity, but it also acknowledges the ongoing struggle for equality. Sharing information about the history of Pride, human rights protections, and the experiences of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities helps support more inclusive decision making.

Pride month began to honour the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York, a pivotal moment when 2SLGBTQIA+ communities stood up against discrimination and injustice. It's not only a celebration of identity and inclusion, but also a reminder of the ongoing work toward equality and respect for all.
