The race and ethnicity sub-committee was formed in June 2020, to build upon the work already being done by COMBAR’s E&D committee in this area. Following the success of COMBAR’s gender equality initiatives, the Executive Committee felt it appropriate to establish a targeted sub-committee focusing on race and ethnicity issues.
The committee is working alongside COMBAR’s E&D committee, with the key objectives of supporting and enhancing inclusion, participation and progression of individuals of all races and ethnicities at the commercial bar, and promoting those aims with the judiciary and within the arbitration sphere, and has already commenced a number of initiatives.
Please contact the Combar Administrator if you would like further details about its work.
