Diversity Champions programme

In October 2017, we announced a formal partnership with Stonewall, Europe’s largest LGBT rights organisation.

This move builds on an employers’ programme that we established five years ago and allows Stonewall to deliver the Diversity Champions Programme in Northern Ireland in partnership with The Rainbow Project.

Through the Diversity Champions Programme, Stonewall currently works with almost 800 employers, from local governments to multi-national organisations, helping them to create workplaces where everyone can be themselves.

By working in partnership to deliver the programme in Northern Ireland, Stonewall and The Rainbow Project are able to combine our resources, expertise and reach to dramatically increase the pace of change for LGBT people here.

If you’re interested in joining the Diversity Champions Programme in Northern Ireland or have questions and would like to find out more, you can get in touch with our Client Account Manager, Fergal McFerran who is responsible for delivering the programme locally.
