20th of December – Delivering inclusivity

Equality.  Diversity.  Inclusion.  These are terms we hear a lot these days, and they are sometimes used interchangeably within organisations.  They actually have quite different emphasis and meaning however, and having an understanding of each of these will be helpful as we move forward with this lesson

Equality is about:

  • Ensuring that every individual has an equal opportunity to make the most of their lives and talents (Equality & Human Rights Commission)
  • Ensuring individuals or groups of individuals are not treated differently or less favourably on the basis of their specific protected characteristic
