WI-HER’s approaches and methodologies have been tailored to reflect each client’s workforce profile, internal culture, and strategic priorities. WI-HER builds self-reliance among stakeholders to comply with USG rules and regulations, mainstream gender and advance diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility, as well as enforce zero tolerance sexual harassment and anti-human trafficking policies for a safe and inclusive work place for all.
Our approach
WI-HER has developed standardized multi-day, in-person core trainings and materials that address DEIA and raise awareness of risks that individuals may encounter facing bias, stigma, harassment and discrimination on the job, risks to human trafficking, sexual harassment, gender-based violence, and unintended consequences that may prove harmful to marginalized or vulnerable groups. WI-HER supports training participants and wider organization staff to follow up and apply learnings to improve policies and practices to be safer, more diverse, equitable, inclusive and accessible.
