Diversity Day 2020 in the Netherlands

Published:

On October 6, Diversiteit in Bedrijf in collaboration with 15 other companies and supported by many more organized Diversity Day 2020 - a nationwide Dutch initiative that is taking place for the second time.

COVID-19 has a great impact on companies and employees. In these challenging times, unity and connection are very important. Therefore, the second edition of Diversity Day asks for flexibility and even more creativity. 

Today, more than 300 Dutch companies celebrate the power of diversity and inclusion. For all the participating companies - many of them AmCham members - diversity and inclusion is a high priority and they organize all kinds of activities around D&I.  

AmCham Board of Director, Marguerite Soeteman-Reijnen, is one of the Ambassadors of the second edition of Diversity Day.

On October 1, 2019, Diversity Day was celebrated for the first time under the motto “Being Yourself Works.” On this day of connectedness they show that a mix of people with a difference in cultural origin, sexual orientation, age, gender or work ability is a positive thing.
