Our speakers can address a wide range of topics, including the following:

  • The case for Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) and its benefits
  • Diversity dimensions (e.g. gender, race, disability, age, LGBTIQ+)
  • D&I planning
  • Unconscious Bias
  • Race, racism and anti-racism
  • Intersectionality and overlapping identities
  • Inclusive leadership
  • Engaging allies in D&I efforts

Every DCA speaking engagement is customised to your organisation’s needs and includes a pre-briefing meeting with the speaker.

Our speakers are available for member events, public forums and conferences.

The DCA Speakers Bureau operates as a fee-for-service resource, with special discounted rates for DCA members. To engage a speaker, please contact us at joel@dca.org.au.
