Equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are three closely linked values that enable us to support the needs of different groups of people.

In this podcast (the first in a series of two) we celebrate the launch of RISE's new ‘EDI in retrofit’ toolkit by exploring why embedding EDI within housing retrofit is so vital.

Our host Sarah Daly leads a discussion with James Olujohungbe (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) and Anusha Shanmuganantha (Turner & Townsend) around what EDI means to them, the risks of not engaging with everyone fairly, and how diverse workplaces can bring significant benefits.
