The case for equality, diversity, and inclusion in the Industrial Strategy and Sector Plans

This discussion paper was drafted by the Policy and Research Working Group of the Women in Manufacturing UK initiative, in collaboration with organisations across the eight growth-driving sectors identified in the UK’s Modern Industrial Strategy: advanced manufacturing, clean energy, creative industries, defence, digital and technology, financial services, life sciences, and professional and business services.

‘The case for equality, diversity, and inclusion in the Industrial Strategy and Sector Plans’ aims to inform the case for equality and inclusion in the UK Industrial Strategy and Sector Plans, and to provide examples of equality, diversity, and inclusion initiatives. 

The paper was led by Jennifer Castañeda-Navarrete (Cambridge Industrial Innovation Policy) with contributions from experts across academia, industry, and professional organisations.
