The Science Dialogue Day aspires to strengthen networks among leadership academies in North-Rhein Westphalia. The first event in this series of networking and dialogue activities focuses on strategies for diversity and inclusion in leadership programmes. 

Diverse leadership is essential for contributing to just and equal societies. To increase diversity, it is fundamental that different segments of the population are represented in leadership positions across all sectors (public, private, and social). Ideally, leaders should represent the population as a whole and be aware of privileges, power structures, broader concepts of diversity, equity, and inclusion.Promoting diversity will enable the development of more inclusive and sustainable public policies and initiatives.

This workshop brings together around 25 directors and coordinators of leadership programmes in NRW targeting sustainable development. Various research and training institutions in NRW have developed academies and other training programmes for young professionals and future leaders in international cooperation on sustainable development. The Managing Global Governance Programme invites the heads and coordinators of these programmes to initiate exchange and engage in joint reflection on successes and challenges as well as to increase peer learning across conceptual, thematic and administrative questions. The workshop is designed to provide an interactive and participatory experience that enhances the understanding and implementation of diversity and inclusion within leadership programmes.
