Civil Service Hindu Connection: A Lunch ‘n’ Learn for BEIS Interfaith Week

Tuesday 10 November 14.00 – 14.30

To mark Inter Faith Week this year, the BEIS Faith & Minority Ethnic (FAME) Network is hosting a lunch ‘n’ learn with the Chairperson of the Civil Service Hindu Connection network, Sandeep Mahida. To date, Sandeep has raised the profile of Hindu Connection, shaped and informed the priorities of the first ever diversity and inclusion champion for faith and belief at Permanent Secretary level, and scaled up Hindu Connection from a departmental network to a cross-government network in October 2019. Hindu Connection recently launched an inclusion survey for Hindu civil servants to help shape policy and identify any issues impacting Hindus in the workplace. Sandeep works on delivering the Prime Minister’s manifesto commitment to provide an additional 20,000 officers to the 43 territorial police forces in England and Wales by March 2023. Come along to find out more about the Hindu faith and the development of this network! There will be time for Q&A.
This event will be run via MS Teams. The joining link will be circulated with registered participants one hour before the scheduled event.
