Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion Action Plan
In delivering the priorities in our Strategic Plan 2024-29 we take into account the equalities objectives we have set in our Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Strategy 2022-26. Our Operating Plan and Departmental Plan identify where our priority projects and activities support our EDI objectives, and in the coming months we intend to publish an extract from our plans here that set out how the work we are doing contributes to achieving our aims.
You can also read more about our progress in delivering our equalities objectives in our Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion Annual Reports, which we aim to publish each Autumn.
Greater London Authority Affordable Homes Programme
We receive funding from the Greater London Authority’s (GLA) Affordable Homes Programme to develop much-needed homes in Barnet. As a condition of this, the GLA expects us to meet a number of requirements in relation to Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion. We support the Mayor’s vision of a more equal, diverse, and inclusive London by meaningfully enhancing our organisational practices, procurement methods, and engagement with communities.
Our GLA Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion Action Plan focuses on our EDI activity that supports the GLA’s three themes:
- Organisational equality, diversity and fairness.
- Sustainable and diverse supply chains.
- Working together with Londoners.
It sets out our priority actions to advance equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in these areas in our organisation and in the wider sector. It is intended to support delivery of our Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion Strategy 2022-26, as well as the Mayor of London’s commitment to supporting increased diversity in the built environment sector.
