The European Diversity Awards are independent awards that recognise and celebrate organisations and individuals that have shown commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion. The awards recognise excellence in the areas of gender, disability, sexual orientation, age, race, culture and religion across Europe.
"We’re living in divisive times, and minorities are sensing a lack of tolerance and acceptance across Europe, often characterised by open hostility and, in some cases, violence. The European Diversity Awards are proud to bang the drum for the societal benefits of equality, diversity and inclusion", according to the founder of the awards, Linda Riley.
The laureates will be announced on the 14 November, at the awards ceremony in London.
