Diversity, Equality & Inclusion
Diversity, Equality & Inclusion
In recent years, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) have become keystone values for companies globally. While investment in DEI has undeniably made strides in tackling barriers to inclusion and progress for many, the reality is that this work has been coming under attack for some time.

Fractures have started to appear in our societies, workplaces are experiencing the collision of rights and beliefs, and the acronym itself has become weaponised and politicised in certain circles, forcing many companies to reassess their approach, and perhaps even their commitment to DEI.
This year Ibec celebrated their 12th National Diversity and Inclusion Day on 5th June with an online panel discussion comprised of international expert speakers, academics and business voices to discuss the current climate and how we can all work to reset and re-envision the way forward for business and society.
