British Council Lebanon We support peace and prosperity by building connections, understanding and trust between people in t

The British Council is committed to a policy of equal opportunity. Equal opportunity is focused on legislating against unjustified discrimination and the fair treatment of specific groups. It’s about treating people fairly, identifying and removing barriers that get in the way of this and redressing existing imbalances, so that groups which continue to be disadvantaged gain access to opportunities for full participation in the workplace and in wider society. Diversity is focused on making effective use of the differences and similarities between people. It’s about creating working environments that value a range of differences, believing that understanding and managing these can lead to organisational and societal benefit. When we talk about equal opportunity and diversity in the British Council, we focus on 7 main areas:

Age
Disability
Ethnicity/race
Gender (which includes transgender)
Religion/belief
Sexual orientation
Work-life balance
We believe the best way to manage diversity is to ensure that it is built into all processes and functions, considered as part of all policy decisions, and present in the planning of all programmes from start to finish. This is what we mean by mainstreaming diversity.

We celebrated the European Day of Languages in Beirut with an afternoon of languages, cultures and activities at Beirut Digital District.
Visitors explored the different cultural institutes and embassies, discovered new words and cultures, and took part in activities like SpeakDating.

At the British Council booth, we loved meeting so many of you and sharing more about the UK, our Online English courses, Exams services and Digital Library. The UK Embassy team also joined us to lead the UK SpeakDating experience and share information about Chevening Scholarships.

Visitors could also explore our From Ink to Action exhibition, featuring the work of 12 Arab comic artists using visual storytelling to explore climate change and environmental issues.
A big thank you to Instituto Cervantes Beirut and Goethe Institut for collaborating with us to bring the day together, and to Institut Français du Liban, Istituto Italiano, the Embassy of the Czech Republic and Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria for being part of the celebration and sharing your languages and cultures with us.
And to everyone who joined us, we loved meeting you, exchanging cultures and seeing how many conversations can start with a simple hello.

At the British Council booth, we loved welcoming you and sharing more about the UK, Online English learning, Exams and our Digital Library. The UK Embassy also joined us to lead the UK SpeakDating experience and share information about Chevening Scholarships.

Visitors could also explore our From Ink to Action exhibition, featuring artwork by 12 Arab comic artists exploring climate change and environmental issues through visual storytelling.
