LIFE's Diversity Statement

The Board of The LIFE Institute and all LIFE members are committed to diversity and inclusion.

DIVERSITY STATEMENT
Diversity and inclusion are core values of the LIFE Institute. We are committed to a respectful and engaging social and learning environment that welcomes and values the different life experiences, backgrounds and contributions of all 50+ adults across Toronto.
Consistent with these values, LIFE strives to have membership and programming that better represents and reflects the ethno-racial and ethno-cultural diversity of Toronto’s population.

VALUE PROPOSITION
A more ethno-racially and ethno-culturally diverse membership that is representative of the broader community will open LIFE up to a wider range of backgrounds, life experiences, perspectives, talents and skills. It will allow for more cross-cultural content in the curriculum, increase the talent pool by having more diversity among course leaders, and enrich the learning and social engagement opportunities for all members.

A more inclusive LIFE Institute will benefit a wider cross section of the broader Toronto community by increasing their access to the experiences and benefits of LIFE’s activities.
