JUSTICE, EQUITY, DIVERSITY, & INCLUSION RESOURCES

The Washington Art Education Association J.E.D.I. Committee has put together a collection of ED&I resources for art educators.

DEFINITIONS OF EQUITY, DIVERSITY, INCLUSION DEVELOPED AND APPROVED BY THE NAEA BOARD:

​Equity: Refers to conditions that support fairness and justness based on individual needs and circumstances whereas all members have opportunities to thrive and realize their best within the NAEA community (adopted December 2017).

Diversity: The term ‘diversity’ describes both observable and non-observable individual differences (life experiences, work context, learning and working styles, personality types among others) and group/social differences (race, gender identity and expression, age, social class, country of origin, ability, beliefs, intellectual and cultural perspectives, among others) that can contribute to organizational vibrancy and a dynamic professional community.
​

Inclusion: The term ‘inclusion’ describes proactive, intentional, and thoughtful engagement with diversity to the extent that all have the ability to contribute fully and effectively throughout the NAEA community.
