ECCV commissioned Victoria University to prepare an evidence review on anti-racism, and diversity and inclusion measures in employment contexts and related organisational settings.
As part of ECCV’s anti-racism initiative All One Together (AOT), this evidence review has a primarily practical purpose. It seeks to offer an analysis of empirical evidence to assist decision-makers, in AOT ambassador organisations and workplaces and organisational settings more broadly, in developing and implementing policies, programs and actions to create a more diverse and inclusive environment and tackle all forms of racism within their organisations.
Summary of Recommendations
We analytically divide the evidence review into three thematic areas:
Recommendation 1
Diversity management aimed at increasing representation within and across all levels of an organisation.
Recommendation 2
Diversity and anti-racism training, including unconscious/implicit bias training interventions.
Recommendation 3
Concepts and practices of inclusion, defined and operationalised in a way that enhances employees’ full integration into the work group (‘belongingness’), whilst also valuing and acknowledging their unique skills and contributions (‘uniqueness’) (Shore et al 2011).
