About this event

Looking to recharge, connect, and share with others navigating the world of EDI? Join EDI Connect, a monthly space designed especially for EDI practitioners and HR professionals responsible for implementing EDI in their organisations who often carry the EDI banner solo. Whether you’re seeking support, new EDI ideas, inspiration, or just a moment to breathe, this space is for you.

Why Join? There’s so much power in community. If any of this sounds familiar, you’ll feel right at home:

You feel like you champion EDI on your own and would love for your colleagues and senior leadership to be more involved.
Often hear, “EDI? Isn’t that just an HR thing?”
Face challenges—resistance, limited budgets, or a shifting socio-political landscape.
Feel overwhelmed by the fast-paced EDI world and want to stay in the know.

In Our Monthly Sessions, we’ll:

Have Interactive Conversations: A welcoming, safe space for open discussion and connection.
Learn Together: We’ll share fascinating data and fresh insights from the EDI field, along with practical tips to keep us up-to-date and inspired.
Build Community Support: Grow your EDI network, gain feedback, hear real-world solutions, and exchange valuable resources.
Empower Growth: Encourage and inspire each other to bring our best selves to this important work.

Join us every month or drop in when you can on a Wednesday lunchtime, let’s support one another as we grow, learn, and shape the future of EDI.
