Wednesday 16 March 2022 at 2pm – online
————————-
IÉSEG is pleased to invite you to its interactive workshop during the INTERCULTURAL ENGAGEMENT WEEK which will take place online on 16 March 2022.
Many organisations are engaged in the process of becoming more diverse and inclusive. These issues are complex as they cut across the activities and structures of any organisation. On the occasion of the launch of the French edition of the Global Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Benchmark, this webinar will allow members of the Center for Global Inclusion, the creator of the benchmark, to present the tool and share examples of how it can be used in a variety of organisational contexts.
