We have notice that our big banks have been extra active, with seminars and so on. For example, the bank Nordea awards the entrepreneur or company that, through its business concept, contributes to inclusion based on the funky perspective.

Axfood that has been a part of Diversity Charter Sweden from the start, had a diversity week. During this week, employees could, among other things, have coffee with a foreign-born with the same work background (via Yrkesdörren), sign up for Meet & Eat and meet new colleagues, listen to AxTalks and there will be dialogue exercises, competition and inclusion wall, inspiration, and knowledge.  BBi Communication celebrated diversity month by playing a round of diversophy® - an intercultural game that allows you to explore cultural differences in a safe and enjoyable learning environment.  Organized in collaboration between their Swedish and Spanish offices. They had participants from all over EU.

Last year one of our Signatories had a Diversity Run and this year, another one took the baton.

BNP Paribas offices in Sweden, Oslo, Helsinki, and Copenhagen organized a Diversity Run/Diversity Walk in the center of the cities to raise awareness of the value of diversity and inclusion. “We enjoyed some nice outdoor time together with our colleagues for a good cause.” (I have enclosed two pictures,  use the one that you find best).

Even this year we had a cooperation with the other Nordic Charters. Our monthly Fredagskunskap/Breakfast seminar we invited speakers from the Danish and Finnish Charters to speak about the topic “Building bridges” regarding the new refugee situation with the people from Ukraine.

We are already excited about next years.
