Equalities Commission lists key internal equality strand contacts

20 November 2009

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) remains committed to working across the different equality and human rights strabnds. However, appointing internal EHRC Directors as “champions” aims to ensure the Commission’s work on each separate strand and human rights receives a senior level overview and is appropriately coordinated and reported.  

Officers within the Stakeholder Relations team already have specific equality strands and human rights responsibilities and they remain your first entry point into the Commission.
