Celebrating International Women’s Day, the Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Charter for Horticulture, Arboriculture, Landscaping & Garden Media professions stand together to celebrate the achievements of women worldwide and reaffirm their commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion.
The Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Charter for the Horticulture, Arboriculture, Landscaping & Garden Media profession came about after BALI’s Access All Areas webinars. Representatives from several associations agreed to sign a charter with the intention of putting together guidance notes for implementing best practices or policies that can be aligned.
International Women’s Day serves as a reminder of the progress made in advancing gender equality while also highlighting the ongoing challenges women face. Discrimination, bias, and inequality persist in various forms. As advocates for change, the group is committed to raising awareness about these issues and taking decisive action to drive gender equality forward.
Under the banner of #InspireInclusion, the group calls upon all stakeholders within their industries to join in celebrating the achievements of women, challenging stereotypes, and forging a more inclusive future. They hope to inspire positive change and create a more equitable world for all by amplifying women’s voices and championing their contributions.
