TYPES OF DIVERSITY(Explanation)
• Race Diversity-race has to do with a person’s grouping based on physical
traits (despite the dominant scientific view that race is a social construct
and not biologically defined). Examples of races are Caucasian, African,
Latino and Asian.
• Ethnic Diversity- is the existence of people from a variety of cultural and
diverse backgrounds within a single area. Ethnicity refers to a group's
shared cultural norms, while diversity refers to what makes people
different based on age, gender, culture.
