The British Council is committed to equal opportunity and diversity. We focus on seven areas of diversity:

•age
•disability
•gender
•race
•religion
•sexual identity
•work - life balance

The last area we believe is a cross cutting issue that affects of the lives of all of us.

We believe diversity complements our work in cultural relations and promoting the UK.

We have developed our Integrated Equality Scheme to help us promote equality and eliminate discrimination in the areas of gender, race and disability. Find out how we are applying this scheme worldwide here.
