Diversity, Equality and Inclusion Lunch

Posted 10th June 2022

diversity lunch

Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) is very important to our industry and is celebrated at the triennial series of response events and other industry exhibitions by holding a dedicated session on this subject. At Interspill 2022, this will be in the form of a workshop and lunch.

The aim of the lunch is to create an open forum for all to speak about gender equality.

There will be a panel discussion to start the event, which will include a short talk from Dr. Sabrina Hatton-Cohen and two other panelists on challenges and lessons they have learned during their careers and personal life related to DEI themes. This will be followed by lunch and an interactive session in up to eight groups that will discuss unconscious bias, responding to sexism, work/life balance, and the impact of culture. Each group discussion will be led by a moderator. Lunch will be provided at the beginning of the event and coffee/tea will be available throughout the whole session.

The DEI Lunch will conclude with short presentations from each group’s moderator and a summary from the organisers.

We have now reached our ceiling on attendees.

However, to inform the workshop content, we would ask anyone who works in our industry or in a related industry to complete a short survey that will take no more than 5 minutes! It is anonymous and the organisers see only the survey statistics that are gathered.

Thank you for your help in completing the survey.
