Role of the award
As part of the commitment to foster more inclusive and fair societies in Europe, the Commission launched the European Capitals of Inclusion and Diversity Award. This new initiative complements the annual EU Diversity Month, which raises awareness about the importance of diversity and inclusion in the workplace and across our societies.
The award is one of the deliverables of the EU anti-racism action plan and LGBTIQ Equality Strategy 2020-2025 and it shows how action at all levels is essential if we want to turn the tide and build a Union of Equality.
The third edition of the Award is now open for applications until 15 February 2024. For more information, visit our website dedicated to the EU Diversity initiatives in 2024 available in all official EU languages – with a dedicated section on the European Capitals of Inclusion and Diversity Award including link to the online application form.
More information on the first and second editions of the Award are available at the dedicated websites: 2022 edition - 2023 edition
