DESCRIPTION:Law firm leaders\, in-house counsels and D&amp\;I experts wil
 l lead a discussion on the importance of diversity and inclusion in the

 nsisting in drafting of a global D&amp\;I toolkit for law firms of diffe
 rent sizes across the various jurisdictions will be presented.\nAfter a

 ssion will be encouraged on the following topics: (i) the main challenge
 s that law firms may face when implementing diversity and inclusion poli
 cies\, (ii) how law firms can ensure that diversity and inclusion is not
  just a checkbox exercise\, but rather a true commitment to creating a m
 ore equitable workplace\, (iii) what steps law firms can take to guarant
 ee that diversity and inclusion remains a priority in their organization
 \, (iv) how law firms can "sell” their diversity and inclusion efforts t
 o clients\, and what benefits this can bring to them.
