Today, we celebrate the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples and raise awareness about the diverse and vibrant communities of Indigenous Peoples around the 🌎. Indigenous Peoples live across all regions of the world, owning, occupying, or using approximately 22% of the Earth's land area. With a population of 370-500 million, they represent a significant portion of the world's cultural diversity. 🫶🏽 With this in mind, it is essential that we embrace and accept every individual within our community, regardless of their culture, background, or identity. By fostering an environment of inclusivity and respect, we not only celebrate the richness of our diverse cultures but also strengthen the bonds that unite us. Recognising and valuing the unique experiences, challenges, and perspectives of Indigenous individuals, and remaining culturally aware and empathetic, allows us to grow together and share culture with one another. Our goal is to create a space where everyone feels seen, heard, and appreciated. This commitment to inclusivity is central to our efforts across all our organisations, as we strive to build a more compassionate and equitable society where everyone can thrive and contribute to our shared success. #indigenouspeople #worldindigenouspeopleday #culture #community #background #inclusivity #diversity #acceptance #empathetic

*Embracing our Diversity* Yesterday on the central day of Pride Month, I had the opportunity to share and reflect on fundamental concepts such as intersectionality, power and privilege in the Lima office. It is important to mention that during the last four weeks, the Pride+ BRG has been able to deploy all the hard-planned virtual and hybrid events to continue consolidating inclusive and safe spaces, thus demonstrating our commitment to diversity here at #ThermoFisherScientific In the time I had in the morning we talked about: intersectionality, power and privilege, since as Marcelo Baudino says, "we cannot really get involved without first having recognized our privileges". And it is from our professional sphere, where we spend most of our time every day, where we can/should also be *agents of change* and take advantage of these spaces to learn and relearn. "Intersectionality" helps us realize that each human being is the sum of many factors that define our identity, a way of looking at our realities and how they affect each person differently. Talking about "privilege", being such a personal and broad topic, can be summarized as something "you haven't had to go through" rather than something you have gone through or had. The "Power/Privilege Wheel" (by Sylvia Duckworth's) helped me visualize and reflect on how our life experiences may differ from others. Talking about these topics, although uncomfortable at first, is crucial for our personal and professional evolution. Yesterday again we managed to raise awareness and celebrate that above all: we are human beings, colors can vary... #ProudToBePart #PrideMonth2024 An special thank you María Polo Capuñay for the valuable conversation that reinforced these concepts!

As we work towards a future built on mutual respect and understanding, it's essential to recognize the importance of Indigenous events in corporate truth and reconciliation efforts. Here’s why these events matter: Honoring History and Culture: Indigenous events celebrate and preserve rich cultural heritage, providing a platform for sharing traditions, stories, and wisdom that have been passed down through generations. Fostering Understanding and Respect: These events offer valuable opportunities for non-Indigenous people to learn about the history, challenges, and contributions of Indigenous communities, fostering a deeper understanding and respect. Healing and Reconciliation: Corporate involvement in Indigenous events signifies a commitment to acknowledging past wrongs and actively participating in the healing process. It's a step towards building trust and repairing relationships. Supporting Indigenous Economies: By participating in and sponsoring Indigenous events, corporations can support Indigenous businesses and entrepreneurs, contributing to economic empowerment and sustainability. Building Inclusive Workplaces: Engaging in truth and reconciliation efforts helps corporations create more inclusive and equitable workplaces, where Indigenous voices and perspectives are valued and integrated. Commitment to Social Responsibility: Corporate participation in Indigenous events demonstrates a genuine commitment to social responsibility and ethical practices, reinforcing the importance of diversity and inclusion. Let’s continue to support and elevate Indigenous voices, honor their heritage, and work together towards a more inclusive and equitable future. 🌍🤝 #TruthAndReconciliation #IndigenousEvents #CulturalHeritage #CorporateResponsibility #InclusionMatters #RespectAndUnderstanding #BuildingBridges
