What is DEIBA? Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging, and Accessibility at General Assembly.
While accessibility has always been at the forefront of GA planning, it is also a bridge to inclusivity. However, beyond the physical accessibility of the facilities, GA also endeavors to create a community where everyone experiences a sense of belonging. So moving forward, look for the acronym DEIB&A on all GA related materials, standing for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging, and Accessibility. Watch for the work of Ann Verdine-Jones, who is commencing her second year as DEIBA consultant to the UUA’s General Assembly and Conference Services department. https://www.uua.org/ga/justice/diversity
Most GA events will take place at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, 1000 Fort Duquesne Blvd, Pittsburgh, PA
