European Diversity Month 2022

"Diversity management at the workplace must be one of the main human resources priorities for any employer on Europe. This is because when employees are valued for who they are, they are committed to their job and fully employ their talents and creativity. I invite all companies and organisations in Europe, whether a signatory of a Diversity Charter or otherwise, to join the European Commission in celebrating the EU Diversity Month in M1Y 2022 by organizing their own events to put the spotlight on the benefits of inclusive work environments. "

Helena Dalli, EU Commissioner for Equality

Focus of the month

The European Diversity Month 2022 takes place during May 2022. This year the focus will be on ‘Building Bridges’. We want to encourage organisations to build partnerships with NGOs, governmental institutions, other companies, cities or civil society to work together on diversity topics.

How to take part?

We invite all organisations in Europe, whether a signatory of a Diversity Charter or not, to take a stand for diversity and act on it. This can be done by organizing internal and external events focusing on diversity and inclusion topics, presenting your diversity policies, organizing virtual or hybrid awareness raising workshops, running a social media campaign etc. .
