A Closer Look at EDI at DNEG with AWN
Delna Dhamodiwala discusses our EDI initiatives and their importance.
We’re thrilled to share that Animation World Network has published an article about EDI at DNEG, featuring Delna Dhamodiwala (Global Head of HR)!
The article touches on all the amazing work that our EDI Task Group has been doing across the business. The Group’s aim is to shape our EDI strategy and help to support our existing Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), enabling them to share their vision with the wider business. Working together, the team has implemented a holistic vision for EDI at DNEG and has launched multiple successful programmes globally.
Delna talks more in the article about the EDI programmes we run here at DNEG, the range of ERG’s across the company, and why EDI is such an important topic at DNEG.
On the creation of our EDI Task Group, Delna Dhamodiwala said:
“We decided we needed to bring all [of our] ERGs together and actually globalize the initiative of EDI. That’s when we started quite a bit of work on building a task force, getting a Diversity Audit done, and setting up our strategy for EDI and goals we wanted to achieve. We were very clear from the very beginning that we didn’t want our EDI initiative to just be a tag on the website. We wanted to walk the talk.”
