About Allyship in the workplace

Allyship is increasingly regarded as a critical stepping stone in creating an inclusive workplace. But what does Allyship mean and look like in practice? This 90-minute session is designed to answer these questions. Delivered through the lens of intersectionality, attendees will work independently and through group discussions to develop a shared understanding of Allyship. Attendees will also hear from panel of contributors from a cross section of diverse groups who will share simple actions that people can take to become allies to their colleagues, including from marginalised communities, and enhance a culture of inclusion at work. Allyship requires a collective effort; therefore, the workshop is designed for employees at all levels, irrespective of seniority.
