Foreign Language Diversity and Inclusion Series
The Foreign Languages Diversity and Inclusion Series (FOLDIS) was designed to promote cultural awareness while providing unique insights into the everyday importance of embracing diversity and inclusion.
FOLDIS provided an opportunity to engage with others to better understand the people in the world around us. Participants will be able to broaden their worldview, consider new perspectives in common situations, understand how their interactions with others may be perceived, and more.
Skills learned as part of the activities, lectures, and workshops are not just important for their own sake. Increasingly, employers are looking for globally-facing employees who are able and comfortable connecting with other cultures. All FOLDIS participants were able to earn certificates of participation, which can look great on a résumé in a wide range of fields.
