Yes it is indeed!
'Principles' are fine, but if nothing is done to implement them - and to train people in how to implement; and then to monitor implementation, they are meaningless.

"tokenistic gesture" - what a wonderful expression.
Thanks

I doubt it. Universities don’t, of course. Do Councils?

Hi Everyone
I consider that Diversity and Inclusion were developed in the community sector, as were empowerment and sustainability.
We would perhaps not object to the private sector adopting these principles provided that it is not done merely as a tokenistic gesture.
But does the private sector even comply with the Equalities Act 2010?

As a speaker at the conference*, I will be happy to forward any specific thoughts to the host for consideration.
It is part of the Liverpool International Festival for Business. I have voluntarily excluded myself from practically the whole of the festival - even (or especially) the events with titles like "opportunities in Africa"
*My talk is titled "Promoting Diversity, Understanding (and Business) Through the Arts."

A diversity and inclusion conference which (on the face of it) appears exclusive?
