Description
The Equality Act 2010 brought together over 100 pieces of legislation dating from 1970 to 2007 to provide a legal framework to protect the rights of individuals and advance equality of opportunity for all. We know that experiences of the housing system, including risk of housing crises and homelessness, are varied and we need to understand these differences so we can more effectively prevent and tackle homelessness. This session aims to help build your confidence in talking about, and acting on, diversity, equality and inclusion, representing the diverse communities of people affected by housing, homelessness and poverty issues. This learning session will cover:
- what equality, diversity and inclusion means to each of us
- the requirements of the current equality legislation
- why a focus on equality is important in homelessness
- ideas for implementing an equality approach in your work
