Cóż to był za dzień!

Bardzo serdecznie dziękujemy wszystkim osobom i organizacjom, które wzięły udział w naszym wydarzeniu: nominującym, nominowanym, jury, prowadzącym oraz oczywiście laureatom/laureatkom/laureatx!

Magia tego wydarzenia sięgnęła znacznie dalej niż sala Cambridge Innovation Center i deski Teatru Studio, gdzie odbyły się dzienna konferencja i wieczorna gala rozdania nagród. LGBT+ Diamonds Awards cieszyło się też dużym zainteresowaniem w internecie. Dziękujemy wszystkim obserwującym nasze profile w mediach społecznościowych oraz będącym z nami wirtualnie podczas wieczornej gali – za każde polubienie, komentarz, udostępnienie i obecność, choć na odległość.

Szczególne ukłony składamy naszym Partnerom, Partnerkom, Patronom i Matronkom – to dzięki Waszemu wsparciu możliwa była organizacja zarówno gali, jak i dziennej konferencji.

From Policy to Practice: are human rights important to economy? Securing human rights for all of the people is a no brainer. Katarzyna Kotula will share with us what the government is doing in attempt to achieve that. But is this important to economy too?

The perception of business field being ever-supporting of LGBT+ community is not always true. How did we feel reading about 'businesses' stealing or buying Warsaw's pride? Is it fair to accuse all companies of pinkwashing? How does a 'corporate' activists' purpose differ from one outside the business?

Equality across Poland
14:40 - 15:15
Panel: Krzysztof Kiryczuk, Aleksandra Muzinska, Grzegorz Sienkiewicz, Ewa Puszkiewicz
The environment for positive social change in the country is shaped by both business and local councils. Increasingly, local and municipal authorities, as well as small and medium-sized businesses, recognise the need to fight for human rights and the tangible benefits of combating discrimination. Businesses and public administration have diverse sets of tools that enable them to promote openness and equality within their local communities, not only for the sake of human rights but also to create more economically dynamic, entrepreneurial, and innovative hubs. Is the promotion of diversity and equality in Poland still primarily the domain of large companies and major urban centers? Let’s discuss the collaboration between businesses and local councils committed to the fight for equality and human rights.
15:15 - 15:30
Top 3 Nominations:
Local game changer of the year
