Diversity Matters Mini Conference

Tech Industry Alliance Diversity Matters Mini Conference: Moving Beyond Tokenism

Tech Industry Alliance are excited to announce that due to the success of our first mini conference we will be hosting a second Diversity Matters mini conference on the 29th November in the Cork International Hotel. During this half day event you will get the opportunity to listen to and engage with various expert panellists who will discuss the importance and meaning of ‘Moving Beyond Tokenism’.

Moving beyond tokenism is crucial for achieving true diversity and inclusivity. While tokenism may provide a starting point for underrepresented individuals to gain visibility, it is not enough to create lasting change. True inclusivity requires recognising and valuing the unique perspectives and experiences of all individuals, irrespective of their background. It involves dismantling systemic barriers and creating an environment that fosters equal opportunities for everyone. By moving beyond tokenism, we can create spaces where all voices are heard, respected, and uplifted, leading to a more equitable and inclusive society.
