包容

包容不是清洁发展机制的一项倡议, but rather a shared value that’s woven into every aspect of our operations. 事实上, many who encounter our community for the first time describe it as extremely welcoming and tight-knit. 在教室里, we strive to build and nurture a culture of 包容ness that makes students feel valued and heard, which not only improves their 教育al experience but also fosters their development into compassionate, 善解人意, 以及合作的口腔保健提供者.

努力打造一个多元化的, 包容, and equitable community is shared and requires a common responsibility among all members of UNE as we build a more just society.
