WEN Cafe

WEN Wales hosts a monthly WEN Cafe online event over Zoom, offering opportunities for speakers and attendees to discuss a theme in detail, from policy to women’s lived experience. These discussions help to influence and inform WEN Wales’ conversations with Welsh Government and other policy-makers regarding inequalities that women in Wales are experiencing. Each #WENCafe is advertised through social media and our members’ newsletter, which you can sign up to receive here. Tickets are available through WEN Wales’ Eventbrite page.

What are the benefits of diversity on both an economic and moral level? How can a diverse and inclusive workplace benefit staff wellbeing? What are businesses doing to prove their commitment to diverse workplaces? Our panel will discuss all these questions and more at this free virtual event!
