Examine the overall state of equity and signs through images. See what signs of diversity look like and compare them with signs that are not diverse and inclusive. Consider examples of policies and regulations that can hinder diversity and inclusivity and review some that allow for and encourage diversity and inclusivity. Leave with examples to adopt in your jurisdiction.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand how signs and diversity intersect.
  • Recognize sign policies and regulations that hamper diversity.
  • Develop sign regulations and policies that allow for and encourage diversity.
