This SIG is designed to be more than a practitioner support network; it is a space for meaningful dialogue, challenge and change. We aim to bring together professionals who are committed to advancing equity, diversity and inclusion through critical thinking, evidence-based practice and collective action.
The group will take a thoughtful and analytical approach to EDI, moving beyond compliance-driven discussions to explore what genuinely creates fairer, more inclusive organisations. Each session will focus not only on sharing insights and emerging evidence, but also on answering the crucial question of “so what?” ensuring participants leave with practical, actionable ideas they can apply in their own contexts.
A key focus of the SIG will be the behaviours, cultures and systems that shape inclusion. While diversity data and metrics have their place, our discussions will place greater emphasis on understanding lived experiences, influencing organisational culture, and driving sustainable behavioural change. Through challenge, learning and collaboration, the SIG will seek to support members in becoming more effective agents of change within their organisations and wider professional communities.
