DEIB.
DEIB stands for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging. On this page you will find more information about DEIB in blogs and articles.

What does DEIB stand for?
DEIB, what is it and what does it mean? DEIB is short for diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging. In the workplace, diversity and inclusion is becoming more and more important. And since 2020, to empower people equality and success even more, the acronym DEIB is getting more and more attention.
To live and work all along as equals, regardless of our differences is the goal. Your company probably also has some ambitious diversity and inclusion goals. What does DEIB add to these D&I goals?
Why the E and B in DEIB can’t be missed
Equity has everything to do with people being heard. This should not be confused with the term equality. Equity is creating equal opportunities, basically solving lack of equality.
Belonging is a sense of relatedness connected to a positive relationship within a group or organization. A true sense of belonging lets people know that whatever makes them diverse is welcomed and celebrated. It’s the last piece of the DEIB puzzle.
Basically, the benefits of diversity are lost without inclusion, equity and belonging.
We would like to keep you informed about DEIB. We will publish new blogs or articles about DEIB on this page. On a monthly basis.
