What’s inside the calendar?

• A curated list of relevant 2026 awareness days, observances and cultural moments

• Space to map activity, campaigns and engagement throughout the year

• A way to avoid tokenism by planning meaningful activity in advance

How you can use it

This calendar is more than a list of dates. It is a strategic planning tool.

Use it to:

• Plan inclusive internal communications and team activities

• Shape marketing, content and social media campaigns

• Prepare leaders for important moments and conversations

• Align ERG activity and employee engagement initiatives

• Identify opportunities to go deeper than a one-day post

• Build a more consistent, visible commitment to inclusion across the year

When awareness moments are planned in advance, organisations are far more likely to create activity that is thoughtful, relevant and impactful rather than reactive or performative.

Who it’s for

• Senior leaders and decision-makers

• People, Culture, HR and DEI professionals

• Marketing, communications and brand teams

• Internal inclusion advocates and ERG leads

If you are responsible for creating inclusive activity, communications or campaigns in your organisation, this calendar will make your planning easier and more effective.
