Finland: Project Drivers of Equality develops tools for equality planning

NordenBladet — The goal of the two-year project, launched by the Ministry of Justice, is to promote equality and non-discrimination. The goal will be pursued by developing tools to the key players for carrying out equality work.

The Project Drivers of Equality strives to boost the equality planning processes between authorities, educational institutions and employers.

Another goal is to increase the awareness among the key target groups and the general public about non-discrimination and diversity.

The project partners are the Finnish Institute of Health and Welfare (THL), the Office of the Non-Discrimination Ombudsman and the City of Helsinki.

The project term lasts until the beginning of 2023.

The Project Drivers of Equality has received funding from the EU’s Rights, Equality and Citizenship Programme (REC).
