Abstract

International organizations must respond to increasing pressures to support equity, equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) consistently across countries, while also respecting local norms and institutional differences. In addition, the unique characteristics of international organizations may provide opportunities to lead in creating environments around the globe that work for everyone. In this panel we consider how equity/equality, diversity, and inclusion influence international organizations, and how international organizations manage and leverage these phenomena. The panelists will explore and debate this influence from the perspective of antecedents, implementation processes, outcomes, and expanding theory beyond cultural diversity in IB. They will also address both top-down and bottom-up mechanisms between people and organizations. Finally, this set of panelists is drawn from the editors of two recent special issues on EDI in IB: The former was published recently in AIB Insights, and the latter is upcoming, with a submission deadline of September 2022 in JWB. Authors interested in submitting to the JWB special issue are encouraged to come to this panel to discuss their plans with editors.
