Race Network at DIO

The DIO Race Network provides unity, a common-voice and a platform for its Black Asian Minority Ethnic (BAME) community in its quest to achieving a level playing field where everyone has the capacity to fulfil their potential regardless of their background. The Race Network is one of a number of networks in DIO that aims to ensure that the needs of all employees, regardless of age, race, religion, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, disability or any other dimension of diversity are considered and valued. The work of the Race Network will also enable DIO to improve the way it attracts, supports and retains colleagues from diverse race backgrounds through schemes such as Positive Action Pathway and Civil Service Mentoring Circles. The network focuses its activities around Commonwealth Day (second Sunday in March), Windrush Day on 22^nd June and Black History Month in October.
