REMINDER

 

We are delighted to invite you to submit abstracts, attend and register for our forthcoming conference: 8^th Making Diversity Interventions Count Annual Conference [MDICAC] taking place on Tuesday 26^th June 2018 at the University of Bradford

 

Organised by the Centre for Inclusion and Diversity, this conference explores the varying interventions aimed at advancing equality, with the objective of informing the development of good practice in the effective use of diversity interventions in organisations.  The conference also provides a platform for the Barbara Burford annual memorial lecture.

The conference provides a wonderful opportunity to network and establish contacts with a very diverse community of colleagues engaged in this important area of work. Apart from the geographical diversity of delegates, there is also a multiplicity of perspectives including workforce/service, organizational, educational, research and regulatory.
