Bradford District Assembly
Equalities Forum
The Equalities Forum aims to work with the Voluntary & Community Sector (VCS) Assembly Steering Group and related thematic forums to ensure that equalities work in terms of the protected characteristics outlined in the Equality Act 2010 (age, religion or belief, disability, race, gender, sexuality, pregnancy and maternity, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership) as well as social class remain an important focus for the voluntary, statutory and private sector (“partners”). This will be carried out in accordance with the VCS Assembly principles of:
- Independence
- Social justice and sustainability
- Diversity, dignity and respect
- Equality and equity
- Participation and empowerment; responsiveness and accountability
- Collective wealth creation and social entrepreneurship
