RELEASED TODAY! New research into Barriers and Enablers to Board Diversity in the Heritage Sector Historic England recognises that the historic environment sector still has a long way to go for its workforce and leadership to represent the country's rich diversity fully. This lack of representation is especially apparent among the sector's decision-makers, including boards. Historic England commissioned research by Getting On Board into barriers to diversifying boards in historic environment organisations. Whilst many barriers were identified, there were also many enablers - and HE will be acting upon these in partnership with Getting On Board over the course of 2024. You can find a link to their report, written by Dr Ambreen Shah here, along with details of some of the actions HE will be taking to address the findings: https://lnkd.in/eKwfbK4g We will also be holding a live Q&A on the report on Monday, February 26th from 1-2pm - booking details are on the linked page.
