The project aims to develop resources and interventions to enhance diversity, inclusion, and equality within the sector. The tender is currently active, with a contract period starting on 26th February 2024 and ending on 31st October 2024. The tender deadline for submissions is set for 19th February 2024 at 5:00 PM UTC. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in research, development consultancy, market research, social research, and economic research services to contribute to advancing diversity in the heritage sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are particularly suited to engage with this tender. Businesses interested in fostering workforce diversity and contributing to inclusive practices would find this tender aligns with their values and expertise. ## Notice This invitation is to tender for work towards a Heritage Sector Workforce Diversity project. In line with point 2 on Historic England's Corporate Plan, Inclusion, Diversity, and Equality (IDE), the Inclusion team is developing a suite of resources and interventions for the sector, in particular to fulfil point 2.8 - "Develop a programme of interventions to increase diversity in the sector including building capacity and capability and developing and sharing our evidence and insight." One strand of this is to provide a model, and supporting resources, on how to measure workforce diversity across the sector. Auditing and monitoring workforce diversity is an important tool for IDE. Auditing workforce diversity can highlight where there are gaps in representation and help uncover why these gaps exist - identifying barriers and blockages. It can help prioritise resources towards actions to remove these barriers, and provide development opportunities for organisations to take concrete and specific actions. Working to remove these barriers not only improves inclusivity and accessibility, it also improves working conditions for all staff - as well as service users, visitors, volunteers depending on the type of organisation and its audience or customer base.
