Porto Business School has reinforced its commitment to the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion by joining the Portuguese Association for Diversity and Inclusion (APPDI).
This milestone was marked by signing the Charter for Diversity, an initiative of the European Commission that promotes the creation of more inclusive and equitable work and educational environments. Adherence to this charter underscores the School's role in promoting a fairer and more diverse society.
Through this partnership with APPDI, Porto Business School is committed to implementing practices that ensure inclusion and diversity in all its activities. This commitment includes developing initiatives that promote equal opportunities, non-discrimination, and respect for diversity at all levels of the organization.
As part of this initiative, Porto Business School plans to carry out a series of concrete actions to reinforce its commitment to diversity. These include creating training programs to raise awareness of inclusion topics, introducing new curriculum content that addresses diversity issues, and implementing recruitment policies that promote greater representation. The School also aims to strengthen a learning environment where all students and staff feel valued and respected.
Joining the Charter for Diversity and collaborating with APPDI represents a significant step for Porto Business School. By adopting these measures, the School reaffirms its mission to train responsible and conscious leaders capable of promoting equity and inclusion in all areas of society. Porto Business School continues to lead by example, showing that diversity is a fundamental value for sustainable and ethical development.
