Awareness days and campaigns run throughout the year, and many of our ALP members have found it helpful to use Skill Boosters resources to support learning around these events. To help with your planning, we have produced this calendar, listing relevant dates for each month. Please note that this is not a definitive list and that some awareness days may fall on different dates depending on who is running the campaign, so it is advisable to check the source before planning.

LGBT+ history month is an annual month-long celebration that recognises the history and contributions of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and nonbinary (LGBT+) community. This year’s theme for LGBT+ history month is ‘Behind the lens’. The idea is to highlight the hard work and contributions of people from the LGBT+ community to the world of film and cinema from ‘behind the lens’.

Intersectionality is an approach that considers how overlapping identities and experiences can result in multiple forms of bias and prejudice. This course shows how an intersectional lens can be used to tackle discrimination and exclusion, and improve inclusion at work.

22nd February 12pm GMT

In this webinar, we will draw on expert insight, ‘lived experience’ interviews and original drama to look at how an intersectional approach can support inclusion and help to achieve more equitable outcomes.
