Since its creation in 2020, the Romanian Diversity Chamber of Commerce (RDCC) has emerged as a leader in the Eastern European region, advocating for equity, diversity and inclusion (ED&I).
As we gear up for the 3rd annual LGBT+ at Work Conference, the RDCC continues its mission to advance ED&I principles across the dynamic landscape of Eastern Europe.
The conference serves as a platform bringing together professionals specializing in Diversity & Inclusion, HR and Talent Management, NGO Leaders, Government Representatives, Business Leaders, CEOs, Diversity Champions, Employee Resource Group (ERG) Leaders, and Legal Experts to refine their workplace strategies further and foster meaningful professional connections.
Featuring an impressive lineup of 12 speakers renowned for their expertise in ED&I and LGBT+ inclusion, attendees can anticipate engaging one-on-one interviews, enlightening case studies, dynamic panel discussions, interactive Q&A sessions, and ample networking opportunities. With this diverse and comprehensive program, participants will undoubtedly depart the conference feeling motivated and empowered to enact tangible change within their respective organizations.
Together, let us embark on this transformative journey towards creating a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive environment for the LGBT+ community in Eastern Europe.
