Hunter Diversity Awards (The Equal Futures Project)

The Hunter Diversity Awards is an initiative of the Equal Futures Project – a local group of business leaders dedicated to raising awareness and funds that will facilitate gender equity in the region.

In their fourth year, the awards aim to recognise and celebrate the diversity champions among us, those who have discovered what works in making their organisation and/or community a fairer, more equitable and more successful place to live and work.

In 2018 Newcastle Business Club is collaborating with The Equal Futures Project to deliver the awards.
