An inclusive work place - Seminar with Friends
In the spring of 2022, the MedH Organizational and social work environment group, arranged a seminar together with Maria Loodberg, expert advisor from the organization Friends. The theme for the seminar was how to create an inclusive workplace. Maria talked about what Friends do and why their work is important. Other points of the seminar were:
- The meaning of degrading treatment, harassment, discrimination and so on.
- Norms in the workplace.
- Suppression teqhniques, strategies and validation techniques.
The recording of the seminar is now available on KI Play and in video format on this page.
