Open Spotlight Award
WeAreOpen's International Awards to Celebrate Diversity and Inclusion
We launched the OPEN Spotlight Award in 2019 to shine the spotlight on organisations that have gone through an inspiring journey in which they worked for diversity and inclusion. Our aim is to draw the attention to organisations, projects and people who lead by example to start positive changes on a large scale.
Nominations to the awards will be accepted again soon. The written proposals are screened and considered by an international jury. Award winners are selected based on a rigorous set of criteria.
The Impact of Sharing Your Story
Awarded nominations serve as inspiration for many other organisations
The winners will be announced and will get their Award at the Award Ceremony where they will have the opportunity to present their awarded stories to the WeAreOpen Community.
The award is an important indicator of your organisation’s DEI maturity and will strengthen your employer brand.
