Testimonials from our 2024 conference
"IDN24 was a well-organised, informative and engaging event that promoted a community, inclusive feel and contributed to a comfortable environment. The subjects discussed were refreshing and thought-provoking and I left with new insights and contributions to be made in my workplace."
"Providing an online workshop stream allowed me as a disabled person to make the most out of the event. Through this workshop I learnt how supporting our disabled employees and colleagues starts before the application process."
"The IDN24 Conference was a really well planned and executed event that brings together key stakeholders within the Inclusion and Diversity network. The event provides a great opportunity for attendees to broaden their professional network and share ideas and best practices with regards enhancing Inclusion and Diversity in all aspects of the workplace. I was offered the opportunity to attend on behalf of my company and left feeling more aware of the importance of having a clear IDN strategy and how I can personally support this."
