Equality and Diversity
In November 2000, the NWDA established an Equality and Diversity
Task Group to develop an overarching strategy on equal
opportunities and diversity for the Agency. The aim was
to ensure that existing activities in this area were properly
co-ordinated in line with current good practice and in support of
the regional strategy. This task is now complete and the NWDA Board
approved the Equality and Diversity Strategy in February
2001.

Racial Equality
England's Northwest is a diverse region which is much enhanced by
the contribution of black and minority ethnic communities.
The NWDA, therefore, welcomes the opportunity to produce a
Race Equality Scheme which outlines the ways in which it aims to
promote equality of opportunity within the region.
As an Agency with a statutory duty to further the economic
development and regeneration of the Northwest, we believe our key
role in promoting racial equality is in promoting employment
opportunities for all racial groups. The Scheme outlines the ways
we intend to address this task.
