Equity, diversity and inclusion
More information on Being Human Festival's approach and work on EDI.
The Being Human Festival team are currently working to improve our processes and guidance on equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI). As part of this process, we have worked with an external consultant to create a series of resources, which offer guidance on how to plan and deliver public engagement activities which have EDI considerations at their core:
- Two EDI training toolkits for those developing humanities public engagement initiatives. One on ‘Planning for Inclusion’ and another on ‘Delivering Inclusive Activities’
- A Festival Code of Conduct for those attending and organising Being Human activities
- A Statement of Intent outlining Being Human's aims and standpoint on EDI
In addition, Being Human Festival provides training and guidance for festival organisers and for those developing humanities public engagement activities. In recent years training has had an increased emphasis on EDI considerations, and we will continue to develop this provision in the future.
