Thu 14 March 2024, 5.30pm | The ARC, University of Glasgow G11
More and more of us are working to improve diversity and inclusion: on our screens and stages, in our companies and classrooms, in our sports clubs and neighbourhoods. Diversity & inclusion (D&I) targets can help us with those efforts and the UK’s film, TV, arts & culture sectors have been using D&I targets for years. Join this event to find out what works.
