The difficulties surrounding what is considered acceptable and what is familiar are constantly being refuted. Dealing with, guiding, and managing other people who may have different opinions, values, experiences, behaviors, lifestyles, and approaches from us, is the key to success, personal, social and professional.<\/p><p>The UoL Centre for DEI is an organizational effort to increase diversity in representation at every level of an organization or company, to actively respond to individual and systemic prejudices, behaviors, policies, and practices that ensure that everyone has fair access to opportunities, and to promote an environment where people with different identities experience a sense of appreciation and respect.<\/p><p>Diversity, in other words, creates both challenges and opportunities in the workplace, as it can be visible, such as ethnicity, gender, age, physical disabilities, religion, or it can be felt in underrepresented groups, such as when someone can be \u201cthe only foreigner\u201d, or \u201cthe only LGBTQI+\u201d, or \u201cthe only newcomer\u201d, or \u201cthe only woman, the only man\u201d. A huge amount of recent research has found that a top factor why employees voluntarily leave their jobs is their lack of inclusivity within their work environments.<\/p><p>At the same time, scholars of diversity and inclusion define inclusion based on two separate elements: uniqueness and a sense of belonging. This means that employees have the need to feel part of a group, which at the same time does not force them to assimilate.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0d7fbb9 e-con-full e-ecs-flex e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0d7fbb9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ecs_container_type&quot;:&quot;flex&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9eef6d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b9eef6d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;motion_fx_motion_fx_scrolling&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_translateY_effect&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_translateY_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:1.5,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;motion_fx_translateY_affectedRange&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:{&quot;start&quot;:0,&quot;end&quot;:100}},&quot;motion_fx_devices&quot;:[&quot;widescreen&quot;,&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;laptop&quot;,&quot;tablet_extra&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;mobile&quot;]}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-1024x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-45069\" alt=\"multiethnic group young people standing together looking each other (1)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/spcdn.shortpixel.ai\/spio\/ret_img,q_cdnize,to_webp,s_webp\/www.uol.ac.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/multiethnic-group-young-people-standing-together-looking-each-other-1-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9e46b2c e-ecs-flex e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9e46b2c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;ecs_container_type&quot;:&quot;flex&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-189108e e-con-full e-ecs-flex e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"189108e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ecs_container_type&quot;:&quot;flex&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dba17e8 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"dba17e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:0}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How do we achieve our goals?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-965f3ca elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"965f3ca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:100}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The UoL Centre for DEI creates conditions of inclusion and participation through effective programs that enhance the importance of equality, considering both the uniqueness of employees and citizens in general, as well as the sense of belonging.

In the educational sector, the Center innovates with programs specially designed for academics and educators of all levels, as well as for parents.<\/p><p>At the same time, the UoL Centre for DEI addresses every adult citizen in the context of lifelong learning who wishes to improve their effectiveness in their workplace, as well as their relations within their communities, in organized groups promoting social justice and resisting social injustice, as well as to people who seek social dignity.\u00a0 Finally, the UoL Centre for DEI collaborates with the \u201cSchool of Calm Thinking\u201d offering seminars on bioethics and self-improvement.
