Equality, diversity, inclusion and accessibility

Equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are the principles we promote at 911±¬ÁÏÍø. We prevent discrimination in all our activities. Click the first link to get to the ARTS EDI page.

The European Union's Accessibility Directive aims to ensure that everyone can access information in a format that suits them. Accessibility serves not only people with hearing or sight loss, but also users with language difficulties.
