Global Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Conference 2026

Join us for a dynamic half day programme to explore the latest legal developments, challenges and cultural opportunities across the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) landscape.

Now in its fifth year, our specialists will offer up-to-date insight, analysis and practical takeaways and bring together leading professionals in the world of EDI for a networking lunch.

Featuring thought provoking discussions and actionable guidance on the most topical issues, we will cover recent legislative and case law developments such as the For Women Scotland judgment, evolving employer obligations in relation to the prevention of harassment in the workplace, strategies for keeping EDI high on the organisational agenda, and the growing complexity of workplace investigations.

Topics to be covered will include: 

• Navigating Single Sex Spaces: Where are we now and what's next for employers?
• All About Harassment: From October 2026, employers must take all reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment and harassment by third parties.
• Keeping EDI on the Agenda: Navigating political and commercial headwinds whilst maintaining core organisational principles.
• Complex Workplace Investigations: Exploring trauma informed questioning techniques, navigating an overlap with an HSE investigation and dealing with potential police involvement.

We look forward to welcoming you to an engaging and forward focused conference designed to inform, inspire and support your EDI ambitions for the year ahead.
