From Talk to Action: EDI Series

From Talk to Action is a fortnightly online session designed to help you build more inclusive workplaces with practical tools, strategies and insights.

Each session focuses on a specific topic. You’ll leave with fresh thinking, actionable ideas and connections with others doing the work.

Each session includes:

1. A 20-minute talk from Toby Mildon, Workplace Inclusion Architect
2. Breakout group discussion on what’s working, what’s hard, and what’s changing
