Theatre and Dance NI (TDNI) invites you to participate in a key consultation session aimed at shaping the future of safe and inclusive working environments across the UK’s creative industries. The session will be facilitated by Equality, Policy and Strategy Consultant Olwen Dawe.
In December 2024, the Creative Industries Independent Standards Authority (CIISA) published draft CIISA Standards outlining the minimum behaviours expected to foster safe, respectful, and inclusive workplaces. Now, it’s your turn to share your insights and ensure these standards resonate with the people who matter most – you and your industry peers.
Why Your Input Matters:
Your feedback is invaluable in refining these draft standards. By reviewing and providing input, you will help ensure they are:
- Relevant and relatable to real-world industry practices
- Effective in promoting safer and more inclusive environments
- Widely endorsed by those working within the creative sector
CIISA plans to finalise and publish the Standards in February 2025, and your contribution is essential to making them both robust and impactful.
