The 10th German Diversity Day: a big celebration!

What a successful month of May it has been! Not only did we celebrate an exciting kick-off in Brussels for the third European Diversity Month, in Germany the month was also crowned by a big anniversary celebration of the 10th German Diversity Day on 31 May.

date:  31/05/2022

Our members and signatories have yet again outdone themselves. 1,100 organisations and companies organised more than 3,000 activities following this year’s theme: #CelebrateDiversity. This new record in participation, but especially the contents of the activities clearly showcase that diversity in the world of work has come to stay. The topics of diversity and inclusion were reported on in TV reports, radio, podcasts and in numerous articles in daily and weekly newspapers in print and online. On Twitter, the hashtags #DDT22 and #DiversityDay were among the top five German Twitter trends. And our joint diversity journey continues: We are looking forward to the next European Diversity Month, including the 11th German Diversity Day on 23 May 2023!

In other news: Registration for the third edition of our project “DIVERSITY Challenge” kicked off in July. The aim of the nationwide team competition is to get young employees between the ages of 16 and 27 excited about diversity. We want to strengthen their commitment to a prejudice-free and appreciative working world in which everyone can make the most of their own abilities. The competition gives young people the chance to take action and shape diversity - with creative and innovative projects that they create themselves.
