“What does a sector-wide intervention look like if we put care at the heart of it?”
As the cultural sector looks to the future, join leaders, practitioners and funders to explore why putting parents and carers at the centre of equality, diversity inclusion & belonging (EDIB) supports lots of people at once. Join us to imagine what a sector-wide approach could achieve, and how you can be part of it.
Date and time
Thursday 1st October, 12 – 1pm, Online, Zoom
We know people are working hard – often against challenging landscapes – to change the sector.
We see that work, and want to bring people together to support what happens next.
Topics we’ll explore:
Are our organisations genuinely designed to include and retain people with caring responsibilities? What kind of sector are we building for parents and carers?
Everyone has a relationship to care: whether as a parent, a disabled person, an unpaid carer, or someone who will need to give or receive care at different points in their life.
Our research proves that care is not experienced equally: women, disabled people, people from the Global majority, lower-income households and single-parent families often shoulder disproportionate caring responsibilities.
Join the conversation shaping the future of EDIB and workforce sustainability across the cultural sector.
This session is ideal for:
- Arts organisations working through any kind of business / future planning
- NPO bid preparation
- Anyone who wants change: No single organisation or person can solve the challenges faced by parents and carers alone. Meaningful change requires collaboration across employers, funders, networks and policymakers to create a more supportive cultural infrastructure.
