FAW Diversity Calendar

FAW Diversity Calendar

FAW Diversity Calendar

The FAW Diversity Calendar has been created as a guide to raise awareness of prominent dates and events within Diversity and Inclusion.

When it comes to diversity and inclusion, there are many days, weeks and months to be aware of, but it can be difficult to keep track of them all. A range of diversity and inclusion awareness days can be found throughout the year which is why we have created the FAW Diversity Calendar.

Whether you’re a PAWB Equality Champion aiming to effectively plan and identify diversity and inclusion events which your Club can support and raise awareness of during the coming year, or you simply have a passion for diversity and inclusion, you can use the FAW Diversity Calendar as a tool to stay up to date with forthcoming awareness days.

The calendar is by no means definitive and if you have any questions please get in touch.
