Diversify: August Newsletter

Diversify: August Newsletter

Greetings, dear community!???

Our newsletter this month celebrates?Indigenous Communities worldwide for?their rich cultural heritage,?unique contributions, and resilience in the face of historical injustices and challenges they continue to overcome.?We honor their knowledge and enduring spirit.

As we approach the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples on August 9th, we recognise the need to center?justice, equity and intersectionality when discussing Indigenous rights.

This August, we shine a spotlight on the Sámi people?- the indigenous people who have inhabited the northern regions of Europe for centuries, embodying a vibrant tapestry of cultural heritage and resilience. It's vital to acknowledge the injustices faced by the Sámi people across the Nordic countries and support them in their fight for equity, equality, and justice.?

In the spirit of inclusive advocacy, we are thrilled to have Aslat Holmberg, the President of the?Sámi Council, as a speaker at the?Diversify Nordics Summit 2023. Aslat will shed light on topics such as decolonization, green colonization, climate justice, and the ongoing challenges faced by the Sámi people and their journey towards justice and equality at the summit.

At the Diversify Nordics Summit (DNS), you can also expect to meet and learn from other Indigenous stakeholders, who will be sharing their insights on critical aspects of intersectionality and justice within Indigenous rights. With 55 days until DNS, we are working towards creating an impactful conference to elevate diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice in the Nordics.

This month, let’s commit to learning more about the lives of Indigenous people, and let us unite in solidarity and appreciation for the Indigenous communities around the world, recognizing their intrinsic value and the urgency of their rights.?

Throughout August, we invite you all to engage in learning about justice, decolonization, and anti-racism through our interesting line up of events. We hope to see you in one or all of our events. Stay tuned for more updates and announcements on our website and social media channels.?

Together, let's create a world that fosters justice, equity, and inclusivity for all.


With gratitude,

The Diversify Team ??
