Welcome to the Equality, Diversity and Human Rights Pages
PAVO is committed to ensuring that the voluntary sector has the skills and capacity necessary to meet the challenges of advancing equality, embracing diversity, upholding human rights and challenging discrimination.
These pages are to help you to gain a better understanding of equality, to assist you in thinking about how your organisation responds to equality and diversity and to enable you to question if your services exclude or discriminate against any group of people.
