Diversity Now! is a project led by BRUXEO, UNIPSO and UDES that aims at promoting diversity and inclusion in the workplace, in social enterprises on a Belgian, French and European level.
Diversity
Diversity is all of our facets ,either visible or invisible, that make us unique. A diverse workplace is made up of employees possessing different characteristics. Some are visible, such as gender, ethnicity, age. Others are less visible, such as personality, socio-economic background, sexual orientation or political and religious beliefs.
Inclusion
is the mindset, the will and the skills that allow us to understand, value and capitalise on all aspects of our diversities. An inclusive workplace embraces individual differences by creating a sense of belonging and respect for all. Every employee feels valued, welcomed, integrated and included in the workforce.
