The 15th International Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Conference (EDI), taking place in South Africa’s Cape Town on 22-24 July, will focus on ‘disruption’.
Disruptive practices, such as the #BlackLivesMatter movement or ‘Fridays for Future’, have made it less possible to ignore topics important to ‘disruptors’. They have highlighted exclusionary practices towards those who have historically been on the margins, not just in relation to race or ethnicity, but also, for example, by redefining gender from categorical to fluid.
Even the Covid-19 pandemic has created the most widespread and fundamental disruption in this century yet, leading to substantial and rapid changes in almost all aspects of life for people across the world. The EDI 2022 conference aims to surface different forms of disruptions and their impact on work, employment and management practices. This hybrid event will allow attendees to attend in person or online. Click here for more information.
