Whether you’re designing a workplace that meets the needs of employees with diverse abilities, or you’ve decided to educate staff about the importance of using inclusive language, Destination BC’s Learning Centre is stocked with must-read resources that will support your business’s journey towards universal accessibility.

Engaging articles repurposed from the Rick Hansen Foundation share important insights, such as top traits of truly accessible buildings and the importance of using inclusive language to disrupt and reframe long-held stereotypes. Compelling case studies shine a spotlight on local businesses that are already superstars in accessible tourism and employment, such as Gabi & Jules in Port Moody and Ogopogo Tours in Summerland. There are also tips for inclusive recruitment, courtesy of Tacofino, whose commitment to building a diverse workforce is truly inspirational.

However you choose to use these resources, we hope you’ll take a few minutes out of your day to read an article, or watch a video. There is powerful messaging here, complemented by easy steps you can take today to start building a more inclusive workplace.

To access these resources, visit the Learning Centre. Thank you for helping us become a more inclusive province so every traveller can experience the transformative power of BC!
