    A Wales of Vibrant Culture and Thriving Welsh Language

    A Wales of Vibrant Culture and Thriving Welsh Language:

    A society that promotes and protects the vibrant cultures, heritage, and Welsh language encouraging people to become a part of their local communities.

    Modern Wales is a country rich with diverse multicultural, multilingual communities with societies that promote and protect the cultures of Wales, including the Welsh language. A society that encourages people to participate in their communities through opportunities in the arts, sport, recreation, and education.

    Join us for a celebration of the many faces of Welshness in modern Wales, exploring how communities are contributing, 'to a Wales of vibrant cultures and thriving Welsh language'.

    Inspired by the Football Association of Wales journey over the past decade, this event will examine and discuss how going beyond expectations, creates an inclusive and positive attitude that becomes self-fulfilling.

    Making Equality Impact Assessments more than a tick box exercise

    Done well, EIAs are more than a means to show compliance. They support the growth of a mind-set and culture that put issues of equality at the heart of decision-making and policy development. 

    However, what we have seen and heard tells us that public bodies in Wales tend to use their EIAs defensively. Too often, they seem like a tick box exercise to show that the body has thought about equality issues in case of challenge. While legal challenge is of course an important risk to manage, this approach means public bodies are not using EIAs to their full potential, especially in terms of promoting equality and cohesion. 

    This shared learning event aims to assist public bodies to improve use and application of EIAs beyond an exercise in compliance by bringing people together from across public services to share ideas, learning and knowledge.

Good Practice blogs

We do this by holding free shared learning events, webinars and podcasts.

They enable delegates to share and learn from each other:

  • on the day
  • remotely through social media 
  • through continued discussions post-event, and
  • by accessing our event outputs and guides.

Our programme of shared learning events focusses on topics that are common across public services. These topics align with many of our studies and contribute towards our organisation’s strategic objectives.

They also underpin the ways of working and goals of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 [opens in new window]Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 [opens in new window] and the Environment (Wales) Act 2016 [opens in new window].

We recognise that organisations are at different stages of design and delivery of public services. This is an important focus for our events.

We believe in adapting not adopting – there’s no need to reinvent the wheel but equally, one size won’t fit all.
