European Non-Discrimination and Diversity Management Seminars
Between autumn 2007 and spring 2008, a series of national training seminars were financed by the European Commission and carried out in all EU Member States, Turkey, Norway and Iceland. 1100 participants from NGOs and nearly 300 participants from trade unions were trained in national non-discrimination seminars, raising awareness and understanding of national legislation and policy. More than 1000 companies and other interested groups attended the diversity management seminars which informed participants of the benefits companies can gain from managing diversity.
The main tools used for the training seminars include a number of training manuals for NGOs and training manuals on diversity management available online in all European Union languages here. National reports summarise the activities and their main findings in each country, and are available here.
