Living Diversity
The word ‘diversity’ not only describes our differences but
also contains the idea of all of us being equal. The concept of “diversity” is about
differences, but there is also an inherent and inseparable element of
equality. Being different is thus not
about exclusion but inclusion.
If we understand and recognize that each and every one of us
is unique and different but at the same time equal then we can conquer our fear
of “being different” and learn to appreciate the humanity in every person.
