Diversity Toolkit

The Cultural Diversity and Inclusive Practice (CDIP) toolkit has been obtained under licence from Flinders University. The materials have been redeveloped for use by UNSW staff and students.

This toolkit is designed to support and monitor your own practices and identify areas of strength and areas for development. It is not a prescriptive, fixed set of practices, but a tool that you can use for self-reflection, or with small groups to facilitate discussions about:

  • reflecting on current practice
  • obtaining colleague/student feedback
  • planning
  • review and evaluation.
