Our Story Includr.org was born out of a global pandemic. Many of us are physically isolated. Others are experiencing health risks as essential workers. The disparity between us is all the more evident.
At a time of unprecedented barriers to human connection — physical, social, racial, economic — we saw an opportunity to establish a new way of doing things.
Diving into social inclusion research and working with experts, we’ve found the best practices for addressing these divides, creating more meaningful relationships, and cultivating more welcoming spaces in the process.
What We’re About
Invisible social forces shape our interactions.
We form opinions about what people look like, what they can contribute, and who we want to befriend—often completely unconsciously. These dynamics can define our relationships and our lives. But by addressing these dynamics with critical thinking, we change the game. Includr.org offers research-backed ways to understand these limiting power structures and shift how we interact with one another. We can learn how to practice deep inclusivity and find common ground with anyone in any domain where humans come together: online, at work, at school, in your community.
Includr.org focuses on:
Encouraging new
ideas and original
thinking
Increasing productivity, psychological safety, and well-being
Putting an end
to non-inclusive
behaviors
Fostering
