The Diversity Charter Lëtzebuerg is a national commitment text proposed for signature to any organisation in Luxembourg wishing to commit to diversity promotion and management through concrete actions that go beyond legal obligations.
The Charter is supported by seven privileged private and public partners - Deutsche Bank Luxembourg, the Ministry ofgender equality and Diversity, PwC, Linklaters, CACEIS Investor Services Bank, Sodexo and HSBC Luxembourg - as well as IMS Luxembourg, project leader.
Structured around 6 articles, it guides organisations in the implementation of practices that promote cohesion and social equity through networks, workshops and conferences, involving all their employees and partners.
Ninth Charter in the European Union, it is part of the European platform of Diversity Charters, led by the European Commission's DG Justice.
Building on its success with Luxembourg companies, the Diversity Charter Lëtzebuerg currently has more than 325 signatories (public, private and voluntary sectors), representing 22% of Luxembourg’s payroll.
The Committee for the Diversity Charter
The Committee for the Diversity Charter Lëtzebuerg is composed of a representative of each of the seven privileged partners. It aims to promote the Charter's image at the national and international levels and guide the overall strategy.
IMS Luxembourg
The Luxembourg Diversity Charter is a project from the non-profit organisation IMS Luxembourg. The non-profit ensures the daily coordination and promotion of the Diversity Charter Lëtzebuerg.
Hello, my name is Priscilia Talbot. As a project manager for the Diversity Charter Lëtzebuerg, I am committed every day to promoting open and inclusive working environments.
My goal is clear: to celebrate diversity and inclusion in all their forms. By collaborating with various organisations and drawing on my expertise in diversity, equity, and inclusion, I design and implement powerful awareness initiatives and concrete actions to drive change. I am always delighted and honoured to share this message at events and meetings. I have the ability to convey my knowledge in a caring manner and to facilitate exchanges.
I am Gabriela. In today's world, I am privileged to work in an organisation that embodies values essential to me: respect and recognition of the diverse forms of life that inhabit our planet. IMS has consistently demonstrated these values through their projects and as an employer.
My current mission empowers me to animate the remarkable network of the Diversity Charter, facilitating the sharing of experience and knowledge in diversity and inclusion. I am proud that my everyday job encourages people to become conscious and act, whether through small or significant steps. Every step counts!
Workplace and society still face discrimination and inequality, so I am committed to continuing what I can do. The Charter shares my belief that by joining forces, we can achieve even greater progress. Will you join us?
