Including Diverse Voices: Ideas for Nordic Societies and Workplaces

Blaze Inclusion Awards presents:

Including Diverse Voices: Ideas for Nordic Societies and Workplaces

Panel Discussion #2

How can Nordic societies and workplaces be more inclusive of diverse voices and identities? What are actors in each of the nordic countries doing to improve this, and what more can be done?

During this event, we will speak with five DEIB practitioners who represent each of the participating countries.

The Blaze Inclusion Awards celebrate and illuminate the trailblazers – individuals and organizations – who actively and passionately uplift Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging (DEIB) initiatives in their workspaces, communities and society overall. With a focus on the Nordic region, the Blaze Awards highlight the champions in each country and finally give recognition to the outstanding individuals and organisations whose practices within the DEIB agenda shine beyond borders.

More information on the panelists coming soon.

The Blaze Inclusion Awards are an initiative by Diversify, and co-produced by HerSpace and The Annual.
