Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
At UNIS we believe in all ideals embedded in the UN Charter, which include the dignity and worth of every human being. We are advocates for diversity, equity, inclusion, justice and anti-racism.
Our goal is for every single member of our community to feel valued and be treated with dignity and respect and experience a sense of belonging as their true authentic selves.
We are committed to serving a diversified school community. We intend to set an example of what an integrated, all-inclusive, multiracial democracy can look like.
We agree
- that we are committed to reaching this goal to the best of our knowledge and ability, and understand that the path is an ongoing work in progress that requires constant and consistent attention and guidance on the parts of all involved;
- to engage with humility, knowing that when we question others’ words and actions, we simultaneously reflect on our own.
We humbly thank Black@UNIS for launching us on this journey. In May of 2020 the leadership of UNIS listened to their call to action as well the voices of our students, teachers and parents.
"Respect human rights and the basic dignity of all people. Challenge injustice. Take care of each other."
