CHAPTER 3

IDENTIFICATION AND DIFFERENTIATED SERVICES


Impact of Disability and Vulnerability on daily life
A. Factors related to the person
The following are often considered the most significant factors in determining a disability's impact on an
individual.
1. The Nature of the Disability and Vulnerability
2. The Individual’s Personality
3. The Meaning of the Disability to the Individual .
4. The Individual’s Current Life Circumstances
5. The Individual's Support System
People with disabilities and vulnerabilities live with challenges that impact their abilities to conduct Activities
of Daily Living (ADL). Disability and vulnerabilities can limit or restrict one or more ADLs, including
moving from one place to another (e.g., navigation, locomotion, transfer), maintaining a position (e.g.,
standing, sitting, sleeping), interacting with the environment (e.g., controlling systems, gripping objects),
communicating. Speaking, writing, hand gestures), feeding (chewing, swallowing, etc.), and perceiving the
external world (by movement of the eyes, the head, etc.), due to inaccessible environment. Many older
persons face one or more impairments. Their situation is often similar to that of people with disabilities. Their
needs are similar to those people with multiple disabilities with a decrease in the muscular, vision, hearing and
cognitive capacities.
B. Economic Factors and Disability/vulnerability
There is clear evidence that people with few economic assets are more likely to acquire pathologies that may
be disabling. This is true even in advanced economies and in economies with greater levels of income
equality. The impact of absolute or relative economic deprivation on the onset of pathology crosscuts
conditions with radically different etiologies, encompassing infectious diseases and most common chronic
conditions. Similarly, economic status affects whether pathology will proceed to impairment.
Similarly, economic resources can limit the options and abilities of someone who requires personal assistance
services or certain physical accommodations. The economic status of the community may have a more
profound impact than the status of the individual on the probability that disability will result from impairment
or other disabling conditions. Research on employment among persons with disabilities indicates, for
example, that such persons in communities undergoing rapid economic expansion will be much more likely to
secure jobs than those in communities with depress.
C. Political Factors and Disability/vulnerability
The political system, through its role in designing public policy, can and does have a profound
impact on the extent to which impairments and other potentially disabling conditions will result in
disability. If the political system is well enforced it will profoundly improve the prospects of people with
disabling conditions for achieving a much fuller participation in society, in effect reducing the font of
disability in work and every other domain of human activity.
D. Factors Psychological of Disability/vulnerability
This section focuses on the impact of psychological factors on how disability and disabling conditions are
perceived and experienced. Several constructs can be used to describe one's psychological environment,
including personal resources, personality traits, and cognition. These constructs affect both the expression of
disability and an individual's ability to adapt to and react to it.
E. The Family and Disability/vulnerability
Families can be enabling to people with functional limitations by providing such tangible services as
housekeeping and transportation and by providing personal assistance in activities of daily living. Families
can also provide economic support to help with the purchase of assistive technologies and to pay for personal
assistance. Perhaps most importantly, they can provide emotional support. Emotional support is positively
related to well-being across a number of conditions. In all of these areas, friends and neighbors can
supplement the support provided by the family.
Gender and disability
The importance of work and the daily activities required of living in the country are paramount in considering
gender. For the male and female with disabilities and vulnerable groups, work is universally seen as
important, whether paid work or voluntary. When the work interests of men with disabilities are similar to
those of others around them, their identity as a man ‘becomes more valuable to the community
Work, particularly paid work, is also important for many of the female contributors. Sustaining this in the face
of community views about disability is at times difficult, particularly when it is balanced with expectations of
traditional women‘s roles of home making and childcare.
The Health Care Needs of Persons with Disabilities and Vulnerabilities
People with disabilities report seeking more health care than people without disabilities and have greater
unmet needs.
Barriers to Health Care for Persons with Disabilities and Vulnerable Groups
People with disabilities encounter a range of barriers when they attempt to access health care including the
following.
 Prohibitive costs:
 Limited availability of services
 Physical barriers
 Inadequate skills and knowledge of health workers
Addressing for Inclusive Barriers to Health Care
a) Policy and legislation
b) Financing
c) Service delivery
d) Human resources
Some Enabling and Disabling Factors in the Physical Environment
The environmental mat may be conceived of as having two major parts: the physical environment and the
social and psychological environments. The physical environment may be further subdivided conceptually
into the natural environment and the built environment. Both affect the extent to which a disabling condition
will be experienced by the person as a disability. Three types of attributes of the physical environment need to
be in place to support human performance. The first attribute is object availability. The second attribute is
accessibility. The third attribute is the availability of sensory stimulation.
Creating Welcoming (Inclusive) Environment
External environmental modifications can take many forms. These can include assistive devices, alterations of
a physical structure, object modification, and task modification. The role of environmental modification as a
prevention strategy has not been systematically evaluated, and its role in preventing secondary conditions and
disability that accompany a poor fit between human abilities and the environment should be studied.
Examples of Environmental Modification
1. Mobility aids
 Hand Orthotic, Mouth stick, Prosthetic limb, Wheelchair (manual and/or motorized, Canes, Crutches
and Braces
2. Communication aids
 Telephone amplifier or TDD, Voice-activated computer, Closed or real-time captioning, Computer-
assisted note taker, Print enlarger, Reading machines
 Books on tape, Sign language or oral interpreters, Braille writer, Cochlear implant and
Communication boards FM, audio-induction loop, or infrared systems
3. Accessible structural elements
 Ramps Elevators, Wide doors, Safety bars, Nonskid floors, Sound-reflective building materials,
Enhanced lighting, Electrical sockets that meet appropriate reach ranges and Hardwired flashing alerting
systems Increased textural contrast
4. Accessible features
 Built up handles, Voice-activated computer and Automobile hand controls
5. Job accommodations
 Simplification of task, Flexible work hours, Rest breaks, Splitting job into parts and Relegate
nonessential functions to others
6. Differential use of personnel
 Personal care assistants, Note takers, Secretaries Editors and Sign language interpreters
Disability Inclusive Intervention and Rehabilitation Services
A „One-size-fits-all‟ approach to provide services for persons with disabilities and vulnerability groups is no
longer enough.
Including people with disabilities in everyday activities and encouraging them to have roles similar to peoples
who do not have a disability is disability inclusion. Disability inclusion means provision of differentiated
services for persons with disabilities and vulnerabilities.
Persons with disabilities and vulnerabilities are often excluded (either directly or indirectly) from
development processes and humanitarian action because of physical, attitudinal and institutional barriers. The
effects of this exclusion are increased inequality, discrimination and marginalization. To change this, a
disability inclusion approach must be implemented. The twin-track approach involves: (1) ensuring all
mainstream programs and services are inclusive and accessible to persons with disabilities, while at the same
time (2) providing targeted disability-specific support to persons with disabilities.
Strategies to Disability inclusive intervention and rehabilitation
Prevention
i) Primary prevention – actions to avoid or remove the cause of a health problem in an individual or a
population before it arises.
ii) Secondary prevention (early intervention) – actions to detect a health and disabling conditions at an
early stage in an individual or a population, facilitating cure, or reducing or preventing spread, or reducing or
preventing its long-term effects (for example, supporting women with intellectual disability to access breast
cancer screening).
iii) Tertiary prevention (rehabilitation) – actions to reduce the impact of an already established disease by
restoring function and reducing disease related complications.

Implementing the Twin-track Approach


Implementing the twin-track approach involves:
Track 1: Mainstreaming disability as a cross-cutting issue within all key programs and services (education,
health, relief and social services, microfinance, infrastructure and camp improvement, protection, and
emergency response) to ensure these programs and services are inclusive, equitable, non-discriminatory, and
do not create or reinforce barriers
Track 2: Supporting the specific needs of vulnerable groups and PWDs to ensure they have equal
opportunities to participate in society.
The following tips will help to overcome the challenges as key considerations for including persons with
disabilities in all program and project cycle management stages of Assessment, Planning, Implementation
and Monitoring, and Reporting/Evaluation.
 Education and vocational training
 Health
 Relief and social services
 Infrastructure and camp improvement, shelter, water and sanitation and environmental
health
 Livelihoods, employment and microfinance
 Protection
 Humanitarian and emergency response
Implement effective Intervention and Rehabilitation
Components of Rehabilitation Interventions
Rehabilitation is a process designed to optimize function and improve the quality of life of those with
disabilities. Consequently, it is not a simple process. It involves multiple participants, and it can take on
many forms. The following is a description of the individual components that, when combined, comprise the
process and activity of rehabilitation.
Multiple Disciplines
Rehabilitation interventions usually involve multiple disciplines. There are a variety of professionals who
participate in and contribute to the rehabilitation process within a team approach. The list is long, and it
includes (although is not limited to) such professionals as the following:
 Physicians
 Occupational Therapists
 Physical Therapists.
 Speech and Language Therapist
 Audiologist
 Rehabilitation Nurses
 Social Workers
 Case Managers
 Rehabilitation Psychologists
 Neuropsychologists
 Therapeutic Recreation Specialists
 Rehabilitation Counselors
 Orthotics and Prosthetics
Community-Based Rehabilitation
Community-consists of people living together in some form of social organization sharing political, economic,
social and cultural characteristics in varying degrees.
Rehabilitation-includes all measures aimed at reducing the impact of disability for an individual enabling him
or her to achieve independence, social integration, a better quality of life and self-actualization or refers to
measures which aim to enable persons with disabilities to attain and maintain maximum independence, full
physical, mental, social and vocational ability, and full inclusion and participation in all aspects of life.
If you give a person a fish, He/she will eat for a day;
If you teach him/her to fish, He/she eat for a lifetime.‖
Currently, three main meanings are attached to the notion of CBR: People taking care of themselves, a
concept and an ideology and community based rehabilitation
Major Objectives of Community Based Rehabilitation
Community based rehabilitation aims to include people who have disabilities from all types of impairments,
including difficulty hearing, speaking, moving, learning or behaving. Community based rehabilitation also
includes all age groups: children, youth, adults and older people.
Implement Technologies for Disability Inclusion
Inclusiveness and Assistive Technology
Assistive technologies: Technologies promote independence for people with disabilities and vulnerability.
The use of devices, computers, robots, and other established assistive technology (AT) can potentially
increase the autonomy of people with disabilities and vulnerability, by compensating for physical limitations
and avoiding difficulties with normal activities of daily living (ADL).
People with Cognitive Disabilities: The impairments may include: Cognition, memory loss and forgetfulness
Needs & Barriers are survival, hygiene (toileting, bathing, laundry); feeding (food preparation, eating,
drinking), remembering, housekeeping—home cleaning, safety, safety technologies, safety of environment,
self-care and medication management, social needs, socialization, navigation, access to information
technology, education, communication and interaction with environment, shopping, esteem, independence,
employment, recreation and leisure
Assistive technologies may include Mobile systems (phones, wearable electronics, and computers),
socialization and entertainment tools (special games, virtual companions, videoconferences),
augmentative and alliterative communication (including I/O interfaces), adaptable/configurable interfaces,
organizer and reminder assistants for timekeeping), medications, (appointments, hygiene, etc.,
electronic organizers, medication reminder/management, procedure assistants, transportation public
transportation facilities) Communication aids (communicators, multimedia procedure, assistants,
large-screen programmable phones, electronic information organizers, electronic mail)
People with Motor Disabilities impairment include Upper-limbs difficulties/ dexterity, lower- limb
deficiencies
Needs & Barriers are the need for mobility, working in the inaccessible environment
Assistive technologies may include orthotics (cognitive orthotics), smart environments, home control,
shopping tools (internet access) and education tools
Implement Inclusive Job Opportunities and Employment
The right to work is fundamental to being a full and equal member of society, and it applies to all persons,
regardless of whether or not they have a disability. A decent job in the open labor market is a key bulwark
against poverty. It also enables people to build self-esteem, form social relationships, and to gain skills and
knowledge. Moreover, a productive workforce is essential for overall economic growth.
Barriers of employment
 Attitudes and Discrimination, Accessibility, Education and Training, Social Networks, Women
Disabilities, Legal Barrier, Inflexible Work Arrangements, Dismissal on the Basis of Disability and The
Benefit Trap
Strategies to Improve Employment for Persons with Disabilities and Vulnerabilities
There a number of strategies that is available to governments in respective sector as they work to improve the
employment prospects of persons with disabilities, vulnerable and marginalized groups.
 Anti-Discrimination Legislation, Vocational Education And Training, Wage Subsidies, Supported
Employment, Workplace Accommodation Schemes, Workers’ Compensation, Quota Systems, Sheltered
Workshops, Private Sector Initiatives and Employer Networks
The main activities of employer organizations include:
 Raising awareness and building capacity on disability inclusion;
 Providing information and tools on disability and employment;
 Influencing policy on the employment and training of persons with disabilities;
 Providing career development opportunities and organizing vocational training;
 Linking jobseekers with disabilities and employers;
Support Disability-Inclusive Business
Private employers can play an important role in developing policies and programs to boost employment for
persons with disabilities, as well as their own bottom line. It is recommended that governments.
To make support for peoples with disability each and every responsible body have to out its responsibility.
1. Support Persons with Disabilities in the Workplace
Governments can enhance the working experiences of persons with disabilities firstly by leading.
A. Promote flexible working arrangements to ensure that qualified, productive individuals are not
unnecessarily prevented from doing certain jobs.
B. Provide funding support and tax incentives to start ups and social enterprise initiatives that aim to hire
persons with disabilities or address specific needs of persons with disabilities.
C. Provide subsidies or tax incentives that support the inclusion of persons with disabilities in the workplace.
D. Develop job coach accreditation and training standards and provide job coaching services to enable
persons with disabilities to do their jobs effectively and productively.
E. Building a more inclusive society
F. Boost education and training opportunities
G. Break down attitudinal barriers and challenge discrimination
H. Improve data collection on disability and employment

CHAPTER 4
PROMOTING INCLUSIVE CULTURE
Definition of Inclusive Culture
Inclusion is a sense of belonging, connection and community at work. And inclusive organizations help
people feel welcomed, known, valued and encouraged to bring their whole, unique selves to work.
Culture is the ideas, customs, and social behavior of a particular people or society. An organization‘s culture
is the culmination of the priorities, values and behaviors, which support their employees in how they
work singularly, in teams and with clients. Culture plays a huge role in shifting the diversity needle and
forming truly inclusive environments
An inclusive culture involves the full and successful integration of diverse people into a workplace or
industry. Additionally, inclusive cultures extend beyond basic or token presence of workers who have
disabilities. They encompass both formal and informal policies and practices, and involve several core
values:
Representation: The presence of people with disabilities across a range of employee roles and leadership
positions
Receptivity: Respect for differences in working styles and flexibility in tailoring positions to the strengths
and abilities of employees and
Fairness: Equitable access to all resources, opportunities, networks and decision making processes.
4.3 Building inclusive community
What is an inclusive community?
An inclusive community:
- Does everything that it can to respect all its citizens, gives them full access to resources, and promotes
equal treatment and opportunity.
- Works to eliminate all forms of discrimination.
- Engages all its citizens in decision-making processes that affect their lives.
- Values diversity and
- Responds quickly to racist and other discriminating incidents.
An inclusive society aims at empowering and promoting the social, economic, and political inclusion of all,
irrespective of age, sex, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion, economic, or other status. It is a society that
leaves no one behind. We work to ensure that societies are open and inclusive to all.
Here are things an organization can do to create a more inclusive workplace and, therefore, a more appealing
place to work:
- Appropriately Connect with Employees
- Interact with Different People
- Create Employee Resource Groups
- Place Importance on Inclusion
- Hold Better Meetings
- Invest in Diversity Training
- People have opportunities to experience a variety of social roles that include friendships, contributing
to the community and gaining new skills. Some of the benefits of inclusion to the person are: Improved
feelings of well-being and self-esteem.
Why is building an inclusive community important?
- Acts of exclusion and injustice based on group identity and other factors should not be allowed to
occur and/or continue.
- All people have the right to be part of decisions that affect their lives and the groups they belong to
and
- Diversity enriches our lives, so it is worth our while to value our community's diversity.
Inclusive community is important to consider the motivation behind an individual, a group, or a community's
desire to build an inclusive community because the motivation affects the following:
 Types and sequence of strategies selected
 Resources available
 Amount of support and obstruction
 Rate of progress: if the major leaders and groups support the effort, progress is likely to be faster.
Characteristics of an Inclusive Community
Inclusive communities do have the following set of characteristics
Integrative and cooperative: inclusive communities bring people together and are places where people and
organizations work together.
Interactive: inclusive communities have accessible community spaces and open public places as well as
groups and organizations that support social interaction and community activity, including celebrating
community life.
Invested: inclusive communities are places where both the public and private sectors commit resources for
the social and economic health and well-being of the whole community.
Diverse: inclusive communities welcome and incorporate diverse people and cultures into the structures,
processes and functions of daily community life.
Equitable: inclusive communities make sure that everyone has the means to live in decent conditions (i.e.
income supports, employment, good housing) and the opportunity to develop
one‘s capacities and to participate actively in community life.
Accessible and Sensitive: inclusive communities have an array of readily available and accessible supports
and services for the social, health, and developmental needs of their populations and provide such supports in
culturally sensitive and appropriate ways /essential services identified include good schools, recreation,
childcare, libraries, public transit, affordable housing and supportive housing, home care, crisis and
emergency supports, well-coordinated and comprehensive settlement supports/.
Participatory: inclusive communities encourage and support the involvement of all their members in the
planning and decision-making that affects community conditions and development, including having an
effective voice with senior levels of government and
Safe: inclusive communities ensure both individual and broad community safety and security so that no one
feels at risk in their homes or moving around the neighborhood and city.
Means of establish inclusive culture
 To create an inclusive culture in which everyone feels they belong and is comfortable expressing their
uniqueness,
There are four key inclusive leadership behaviors
1) Empowerment
2) Accountability
3) Courage:
4) Humility
How inclusive culture establish?
There are five stages in establishing inclusive culture
1. Consider what you want to achieve and what the benefits will be.
2. Undertake an inclusion review of your workplace
3. Decide where work is needed and create an action plan.
4. Communicate the plan with staff and put the plan into action.
5. Review, monitor and evaluate the plan’s impact and use what you find to plan future action
Ten Characteristics of an Inclusive Organization
1. It accepts diversity and inclusion as a way of life.
2. It evaluates individual and group performance on the basis of observable and measurable
behaviors and competencies..
3. It operates under transparent policies and procedures.
4. It is consistent in its interactions with everyone.
5. It creates and maintains a learning culture.
6. It has a comprehensive and easily accessible system of conflict resolution at all levels.
7. It recognizes that it is part of the community that it serves.
8. It lives its mission and core values.
9. It values earned privilege over unearned privilege.
10. It accepts and embraces change.
Inclusive values
The seven Pillars of Inclusion:
Access, Attitude, Choice, partnership, communication, policy and opportunity
Values are fundamental guides and prompts to action.
A values framework can be considered as a universe of interconnected meanings.
CHAPTER 5
INCLUSION FOR PEACE, DEMOCRACY AND DEVELOPMENT
5.1. Inclusiveness for Peace-Peace can be defined in several ways. However, for the purpose of this module
peace is defined as creating mutual understanding, positive relationship between individuals and groups.
Peaceful, democratize and developed. Peace issues are core to the discussion of resilience. Resilient societies
are those where the social fabric is strong.
To develop peace each and every body have to:
 Think local and act global
 National implementation alone will not suffice to achieve the SDGs
 Protect and support civil society in fostering sustainable peace:
5.2. Inclusive Education for Democracy
Inclusive education for democracy has not been established as a central purpose for schooling in
Ethiopia. Schools are the ideal place to promote democracy. One of the most important tasks of schools
should be helping students to realize the values of democracy. The democratic values include is to
enhance protected right, independent quality life for all, freedom, pursuit of happiness, justice, the common
good, truth, respect and tolerance for diversity and partisanship.
Democratic principles for inclusive practices
1. Diversity enriches and strengthens all communities.
2. All persons with disabilities different in their needs, potentials, learning and working styles;
3. Their achievements according to their potentials are equally valued, respected and celebrated by society.
4. All learners are enabled to fulfill their potential by taking into account individual requirements and needs.
5.3. Inclusion for Development-The word development is widely used to refer to a specified state of
advancement or growth a new and advanced idea, profession, physical, mental, product; or an event that
constitutes a new stage under changing circumstances. Development is a positive growth or change in
economic, social and political aspects of a country. Any kind of development should be inclusive.
Importance of Inclusion
1. It is important to support people learn, productive, successful and live independently, be successful without
helping them too much.
2. Inclusiveness when practiced well is very important because: All people are able to be part of their
community and develop a sense of belonging and become better prepared for life in the community as
children and adults. It provides better opportunities for learning.
3. Inclusion values diversity and the unique contributions, where everybody brings to the milieu. In a truly
inclusive setting, every individual feels safe and has a sense of belonging. A person who participates in setting
life goals and take part in decisions that affects them.
4. The opportunity to participate in the typical experiences in life; to be with other people and form
friendships and develop other social skills; for natural lifelong learning in real situations and access to
inclusion models
5. The inclusion model is also beneficial because it prepares individuals today and in the future
Respecting divers needs, culture, values, demands and ideas
These include race, ethnicity, age, ability, language, nationality, socioeconomic status, gender, religion, or
sexual orientation. The group is diverse if a wide variety of groups are represented. Cultural diversity has
become a hot-button issue when applied to the workplace.
Cultural Diversity
The term culturally diversity is often used interchangeably with the concept of multiculturalism.
Recognition of the abundant diversity of cultures; respect for the differences; acknowledging the validity
of different cultural expressions and contributions; valuing what other cultures offer; encouraging the
contribution of diverse groups; empowering people to strengthen themselves and others to achieve their
maximum potential by being critical of their own biases; and celebrating rather than just tolerating the
differences in order to bring about unity through diversity are important elements in defining and
describing multiculturalism. The multicultural person, therefore, is not simply the one who is sensitive to
many different cultures. Rather, this person is always in the process of becoming a part of and apart from a
given cultural context.
Ethnic diversity
The diversity of something is the fact that it contains many very different elements. The terms "race" and
"ethnicity" used interchangeably, but, generally speaking, the meanings are distinct. Race is usually seen as
biological, referring to the physical characteristics of a person, while ethnicity is viewed as a social
science construct that describes a person's cultural identity. It is including nationality, regional culture,
ancestry, and language.
Benefits of Cultural Diversity
There are many advantages of a diverse in schools and workplaces. Organizations
 Increased productivity,
 Improved creativity
 Improved employee engagement
 Improved company reputation
 wider range of skills
 Improves cultural insights
 Reduced Fear, Improved Performance
 Put a variety of world views into one room, and you'll come out the other side with better ideas
 In the same vein, workplace diversity boosts creativity
 Schools‘ cultural diversity enriches the educational experience
 It helps dispel negative stereotypes and personal biases about different groups are not necessarily our
own; so that as we interact with others we can build bridges to trust, respect, and understanding across
cultures; inclusiveness.
Religious diversity
A religious conflict is a conflict primarily caused or justified by differences in religion. In the modern period,
debates are common over the extent to which religious, economic, or ethnic aspects of a conflict predominate
in a given conflict.
 Lack of values for differences and poor management of religious institutions
 Disrespect and unfair treatment other religions
 Unclear roles as followers of a given religion
 Inadequate spiritual education and training or ill thought
 Lack of collaboration and poor living environment
 Partiality or lack of equal treatment from political leaders
How to Resolve Conflict
1. Agree on a mutually acceptable time and place to discuss the conflict
2. State the problem as you see it and list your concerns
3. Let the other person have his/her say
4. Listen and ask questions
5. Stick to one conflict at a time to the issue at hand
6. Seek common ground
Gender differences
In general terms, "sex" refers to the biological differences between males and females, such as the genitalia
and genetic differences. "Gender" can refer to the role of a male or female in society, known as a gender role,
or an individual's concept of them, or gender identity. Either of the two sexes (male and female), especially
when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones.
Stereotype thinking against woman
Stereotyping is a cognitive process in that it involves associating a characteristic with a group, but it can also
involve, lead to, or serve to justify an affective reaction toward people from other groups
What is expected from society to equally treat of female?
 Our priorities are winning economic equality and securing equal rights for women;
 Reproductive freedom and other women's health issues;
 An equitable distribution of life's opportunities and resources between women and men, and/or the equal
representation of women and men
 Every woman and girl is entitled to live in dignity and in freedom, without any fear.
 Caring practices for female, not violence
 Equal opportunity for education and employment
Gender Justice is indispensable for development, poverty reduction, and is crucial to achieving human
progress
Marginalized group of people
Marginalization is a process that includes many external forces. People may be marginalized on the basis of
the social, gender, cultural, ethnic, economic, social order, beliefs and other factors.
Creating friendly environments for marginalized people
1. Tolerate for the differences opinions and attitudes
2. Seek out marginalized voices and perspectives and provide support
3. Confront your own racist thought and try to be inclusive of all the differences
4. Use your privilege to support marginalized people‘s movements
5. Give your time and money, if possible for the success of inclusive development
6. Be proactive about inclusion in your daily life
7. Avoid segregation
8. Do the work that help to promote inclusiveness
