The South African General Counsel for Diversity & Inclusion (SA GC for D&I) initiative aims to foster greater inclusivity within the legal professional community by providing a platform for corporate entities, law firms, groups of advocates, and other legal sector players to engage on critical diversity issues.

A key aspect of the initiative is the creation of working groups to facilitate comprehensive and multi-stakeholder conversations around critical themes linked to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within the South African legal
fraternity.

These working groups discuss topics proposed and voted on by members
and partners to the initiative. Each working group is tasked with using the discussions to create an output intended as a public good resource for those wanting to enhance DEI. This document is such an output and aims to encourage readers to share it with others in the South African legal fraternity who may benefit from its content.
