Introduction to new brief...




As part of my new assignment I have been given a theme for the end of the year fashion show Equality and Diversity. I understand it is important to understand the meaning of Equality and Diversity before I can look into the subjects related to the topic...

Define Equality: Equality is all about creating a fairer society where everyone can participate and has the opportunity to fill there potential. An equalities approach understands that our social identity – in terms of gender, race, disability, age, social class, sexuality and religion – will impact on our life experiences.

Define Diversity: Diversity literally means difference. When it is used as a contrast or addition to equality, it is about recognising individual as well as group differences, treating people as individuals, and placing positive value on diversity in the community and in the workforce.

Once i had looked into the meaning of Equality and Diversity I selected a range of different subjects that i can link into my theme...
- Mental health
-Size
-Gender man/woman equal rights
-Social class
-Sexual Orientation
-Faith and belief/religion
-Age discrimination
-Race
