EDI Workshop - Andi E (10 min)
Preamble: One of the outcomes of the Executive Director's probationary review was a need for soft skills training. While this has already begun, there is recognition from the HR Committee that these kinds of learnings cannot happen in a vacuum. As such, the HR Committee would like to bring forward the motion to approve the expenditure to hire an EDI Specialist to come to work with our volunteers, staff, and Board. We feel that this is the most valuable place for us to start with soft skills training, as it is something that everyone can take advantage of, and our membership and patrons will also benefit from. This will bolster our efforts to make Bike Edmonton and the Bike Edmonton Workshops safer spaces for everyone.
We have been in touch with Dr. Farha Shariff from the University of Alberta. She has agreed to work with us on a contract basis for some guided conversations for our volunteers and staff, and a workshop for our executive director and board. She is an Assistant Lecturer in the Faculty of Education Educational Policy Studies Dept and a well respected social justice educator specializing in anti-racism. She is also an Edmontonian, a fitness instructor, and a recreational cyclist.
Scheduling is TBA, with the guided conversations tentatively scheduled for March, and the workshop in April.
MOTION
| The HR Committee requests that the Board approves the expense of up to $2500 to contract Dr Farha Shariff to facilitate EDI workshops and conversations with Bike Edmonton board, volunteers, and staff.
