Empower transformational change

Using evidence to drive inclusion

Transforming workplace inclusivity requires more than good intentions − it demands a strategic, evidence-based approach. The Halsden Centre can help your organisation harness data and insights to make meaningful and lasting improvements.

STEP 2 on your journey to inclusion

Using your evidence base to understand the inequalities in your organisation’s culture and working environment, you can start to co-design a plan for improvement, looking at your processes and practices through an inclusion lens.

Co-develop a holistic inclusion strategy

Co-design the interventions (your actions) informed by lived experience

Implement your action plans to embed inclusion into your culture and operations

Inclusivity is all about people. Building inclusivity with people, rather than for people, will lead to better, more sustainable, inclusion outcomes.

Putting data in the hands of change agents

By analysing key evidence from your inclusivity efforts, we can guide strategic decisions, ensuring your actions address real challenges and have a lasting impact. From reshaping policies to enhancing employee experiences, we turn insights into practical solutions that drive progress.

Our goal is to help you build an inclusive culture where everyone can thrive, using a data-driven approach that fosters accountability and continuous improvement.

Our approach turns data into a powerful tool for advancing inclusivity, helping your organisation create a culture where everyone can thrive and contribute to their fullest potential.

With our support and guidance, you can use your evidence base to define clear, measurable goals towards better inclusivity.

Through engaging diverse experiences and perspectives, you can co-design a meaningful and practical roadmap to drive real progress.

Working collaboratively with your workforce and stakeholders to co-design a holistic inclusion strategy will empower them to become part of your journey to inclusion.

What is the co-design process?

Collaborating with a diverse and representative group of people from across your organisation (the co-design participants), the inequalities in your organisation are identified, explored, and better understood. This process allows participants to develop a mutual understanding of the experiences of others in the organisation (which may differ from their own).

Using a structured and facilitated approach, co-design participants are empowered to be the decision-makers in the co-design process, guided by their own lived experience and the wider evidence base.

Working collaboratively with the co-design participants, ideas are generated and solutions to the identified challenges developed.

Continuing to work with the co-design participants, the solutions are implemented in the workplace and the impact evaluated.

The benefits of co-design in your journey to inclusion

Empowering a diverse group of people from across your organisation to co-design your inclusion strategy and implementation plan, inclusion initiatives, and/or inclusive policies, will ensure your inclusion actions reflect the experiences, perspectives and needs of those most impacted by the inequalities identified. The co-design process also creates a sense of agency and empowers people’s continued participation in decision-making.
