Towards Global Equality

and Celebration of Difference

In October 2007 in the UK a new body will begin work. It is called the Commission for Equality and Human Rights (CEHR) and it's purpose is to bring together under one roof the six pillars of equality and diversity:

Gender, Race, Disability, Religion, Sexuality and Age.

The first three of these already have commissions in existence, the second trio are all new areas of regulation that are now being implemented. The opportunity with this commission is to regularise the legislation and ensure equal treatment in all area of discrimination.

Driving this change are European regulations that are now being implemented throughout the European Union and in the US similar legislation already exists or is in the process of being implemented.

The purpose of this groups is to bring together all lenses and lensmasters with an interest in addressing issues of equality and diversity, to share experiences and to encourage others to join us and explore every aspect of the subject. I would like this group to become a starting point for anyone, anywhere in the world with an interest in promoting equality and celebrating difference.
