Inclusive practice encompasses attitudes and approaches that help to ensure that individuals do not feel left out, excluded or isolated.
This is achieved by ensuring that everybody has the same opportunities to participate and that individual differences are respected and valued. Inclusive practice also involves having an understanding of the terrible effects of discrimination and being able to challenge discrimination in a positive way when it occurs.
By integrating inclusivity into your daily practice, you can ensure that each individual’s beliefs, cultures, values, preferences and life experiences are respected. This helps to create stronger and more trustworthy relationships and promotes the self-esteem and well-being of others.
Therefore, inclusive practice directly promotes and supports equality and diversity because it treats all individuals fairly and acknowledges, values and respects their differences.
