The capital is joining the celebration of the European Diversity Month. On this occasion, throughout May you will be able to see thematic exhibitions, films and theater performances, and in libraries you will be able to use the prepared Diversity Shelves, presenting books on equality issues.
May is European Diversity Month. This is the time to promote it both in workplaces and in local communities. It is worth increasing the visibility of various groups of people, especially those at risk of exclusion. Diversity is a huge value in the modern world.
Social diversity and equal treatment policies have a positive impact on the development of societies. Warsaw sees its potential and wants to use it consciously and responsibly, says Karolina Zdrodowska, coordinating director for entrepreneurship and social dialogue, president’s plenipotentiary for equal treatment.
As part of the Warsaw Diversity Month, Warsaw organizations and cultural institutions organize many events. Their full list is available on the event website.
Diversity in the workplace
The City of Warsaw together with the Responsible Business Forum also invite you to participate in the conference “Diversity Month 2024”, which will end the celebration of this special holiday. The largest event implemented under the Diversity Charter supports counteracting discrimination in the workplace. Every year it gathers experts dealing with diversity management and working for people at risk of exclusion and discrimination.
This year’s meeting will be held on May 21 at Fort Sokolnickiego in Stefan Żeromski Park in Warsaw, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
During the event, in addition to speeches, discussion panels and presentations of company case studies, the results of the 4th edition of the Diversity IN Check survey will be presented – a tool for diagnosing the maturity level of an organization in the area of diversity management. The list of employers most advanced in managing diversity and inclusion in Poland 2023 will also be announced.
The list of events will be updated on the Warsaw Diversity Month website.
