For Community

Our FREE online Anima Cafés bring together thought leaders and community members for lively conversations on important EDI (equity, diversity and inclusion) issues. Join us to build the knowledge, comfort and skills required to create more inclusive workplaces, organizations and communities.

Each Café is hosted by an Anima Leadership team member and features guests from across the globe.

Catch up on archived recordings of our Anima Cafés with the Anima Podcast. These episodes focused on EDI (equity, diversity, and inclusion) topics in the workplace include actionable, relevant tips for creating an environment where everyone feels like they matter and belong.

Each episode is captured from a previous Anima Café and includes highlights from the event and discussion.

The Anima Blog features EDI (equity, diversity and inclusion) resources designed to be accessible and applicable to anyone looking to improve their equity literacy. Find tips to develop your own racial justice knowledge, navigate common challenges in equity work, create more inclusive organizations and more.

Blog resources are being added on an ongoing basis, so make sure you check back regularly for more content.

Both of Anima’s co-founders are also published authors. Deep Diversity: A Compassionate, Scientific Approach to Achieving Racial Justice by Shakil Choudhury is a deep dive into the Deep Diversity® framework that informs Anima Leadership’s work. Breaking The Ocean: A Memoir of Race, Rebellion and Reconciliation and Bones of Belonging: Finding Wholeness in a White World by Annahid Dashtgard translate the lessons of belonging into the universal language of story.
