Agenda item

The Committee considered a Report of the Interim CEO, Barbican Centre concerning the progress of the Barbican’s EDI strategy and associated action plans since the full Annual Update in January 2025.

RESOLVED – That the Committee:

• Recommends to the Barbican Board that it uses the feedback from the anti-racism training (appendix 1) to inform themes for reflection during the next Board away-day.
  
  
• Recommends to the Barbican Board that it embarks on an adapted version of the 90-minute people manager training module (practising scenarios) to strengthen their anti-racism leadership.
  
  
• Approved that the Committee continued to receive a separate EDI Strategy update report, annually rather than the current rate of twice a year, and receive high level EDI updates embedded as part of PCI strategy Reports.
