This learning experience helps learners understand the nature and effect of bias, something that science has shown affects even well-intentioned people. It includes practical evidence-based strategies to help you live your values and prevent biases from affecting you and others.
Research has shown that our biases, although often unintended, can influence the way we treat people who come from different backgrounds - for example from different racial and ethnic groups. In this evidence-based learning experience, you will learn:
- Why we behave in biased ways that are not consistent with our true values.
- Where biases come from
- How biases negatively impact us and those around us
- Practical evidence-based strategies to prevent bias from you, you and others
