What is Investing In Ethnicity?
We work with businesses interested in progressing the Ethnicity Agenda within their workforce and beyond.
Membership
We offer a range of opportunities to engage with our members and collaborate on programmes covering a myriad of topics. Our network of members are from a broad range of industries. Together, we are dedicated to shifting the dial on ethnic equity and overcoming structural barriers.
Maturity Matrix
The Government-backed Maturity Matrix is a tool for employers to assess their organisation’s achievements and progress on ethnic inclusion. After completing, organisations receive a report outlining key recommendations and guidance to help advance and streamline strategy for organisations on their ethnicity journey.
Internal Programmes
We will meet with your organisation to develop a bespoke programme for your employees. These programmes will take into consideration where your organisation is in its journey, its unique culture, and specific challenges you may be facing.

“Simply outstanding. I would like to say a massive thank you to Investing Ethnicity for delivering an impactful session to over 600 of our Ethnicity Allies. The session was engaging, powerful and encouraged colleagues to learn more about key topics such as power, privilege and microaggressions. The conversations that has taken place following the session has been superb with many colleagues feeling empowered on how they can be effective allies. We are very much looking forward to part 2 of the session and our ongoing relationship with Investing Ethnicity to support the progressive and inclusive culture we want to see across the bank”
“From the feedback I have received, the delegates really enjoyed your clear yet detailed explanation of privilege and bias in the widest sense, what makes microaggressions so impactful and for highlighting some of the tools that we can use to become ethnicity allies in our day to day work.”
“GSK have been excited to work with Investing in Ethnicity, we have loved their workshop series, and the Matrix Benchmark is helping to guide our plan to improve ethnic diversity.”
Government-Backed Support
Investing in Ethnicity is the secretariat of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Governance and Inclusive Leadership. The Maturity Matrix was launched in Parliament in 2018 under the group, chaired by former Shadow Secretary of State for Women and Equalities, Dawn Butler MP.
