About ICE3

The concept of diversity encompasses a multitude of dimensions, and at its core lies the intricate interplay of various identities and experiences. The theme of this international conference, “Embracing Diversity: The Intersectional Experience”, explores the nuanced intersections of race, gender, sexuality, class, ability, and other facets of identity This conference attempts to highlight the importance, challenges, and opportunities in embracing diversity through an intersectional lens, recognizing the multifaceted nature of individuals and communities. Inclusion is about embracing diversity. It is a practice of creating an environment where all individuals feel valued, respected, and supported, regardless of their differences across ability, socio-economic status, caste, and gender. Embracing diversity aims to create an inclusive and equitable environment by acknowledging and valuing the unique contributions and diverse experiences following the intersectional approach.
