I DIVERSITY WG
In its fourth year, the Diversity WG
supported the discussions of an
Action Plan on Diversity, Equity, and
Inclusion (DEI) prepared by WRI
Brasil with the support of an external
consultant. The group also contributed
to expanding guidelines for diversity
in the organization's hiring policies.
With the pandemic, awareness-
raising activities began to be carried
out online. WG members conducted
internal training on decolonialism.
The Seeds of Diversity newsletters were
still sent on International Women's
Day, International LGBTQI+ Pride
Day, and Black Awareness Day.
The dates were signified by activities
with professionals linked to the themes
such as, a discussion with the black
entrepreneurs Mariana de Paula
(LabJaca), Thiago Oliveira (Reciclar
Design), and Didas Mzirai (Mucho
Mangoes), whose organizations
work in citizen-generated data and
empowering vulnerable communities;
generating income from recycling;
and training and fair payment for
family farming, respectively.
I SUSTAINABILITY WG
The Sustainability WG works to
encourage internal actions that reflect
the organization's values. In its fifth
year of operation, the WG adapted
itself to the pandemic, prioritizing
sustainable actions that could be
carried out at home and benefiting
people in vulnerable situations, small
producers, and the environment.
The WRI Brasil team makes
financial contributions for the
use of the parking lot-part of the
Parking Policy the WG developed in
2020. The amount the team raised
during the pandemic was donated
to environmental and social non-
governmental institutions. A vegetarian
and vegan photography competition
encouraged the WRI Brasil team to
reduce the environmental impact
of their food choices and awarded
the winning photos with vouchers
to buy from small local producers.View entire presentation
