Diversity within the CIPR Executive Board

Executive Board, is leading the Chartered Institute's work on
diversity. Promoting diversity within the profession has become
one of the Board's main objectives

CIPR's diversity activities

The
Diversity Group
A networking group of PR practitioners from diverse backgrounds
and people working with diversity related issues has been formed
to advise and inform our diversity strategy. This networking
group also provides the opportunity to exchange ideas,
experiences and best practice

Roundtables on diversity
The CIPR runs formal diversity networking events. The
roundtables on diversity give PR professionals from different
backgrounds an opportunity to meet and discuss the issues. For
the CIPR, they provide feedback on its strategy

Diversity micro-website
The CIPR website now has a new section dedicated to the issue of
diversity. This dynamic area contains our policy on diversity,
testimonials, case studies, reports and other resources for
members and their organisations
