Vipond Consulting

About Us

Vipond Consulting was founded as an avenue for advancing inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA) across sectors, focusing on 2SLGBTQIA+ issues.

We work with private and public employers, institutions, NGOs, and community groups of all sizes and offer a range of services tailored to the needs of your organization.

We offer workshops and training, policy review and development, research and advising, community consultation, and curriculum development related to IDEA and 2SLGBTQIA+ issues.

Our Approach

We understand that identity and lived experience shape, and are shaped by, the world around us. That is why we approach IDEA and 2SLGBTQIA+ issues through an intersectional and anti-oppressive lens.

Fostering inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA) requires openness, humility, and a genuine desire to do things differently. We strive to embody these values in all the work that we do.
