Purpose

– Explores the notion of sustainable diversity-management practices.

Design/methodology/approach

– Summarizes research into the sustainability of diversity management across four countries and provides examples of efforts to maintain high levels of diversity.

Findings

– Looks at the activities of Africa House, an organization that develops business links with Africa, and of Bright Entertainment Network (BEN) Television, which is a television station that caters primarily for ethnic minorities.

Social implications

– Highlights the complexity of diversity and so the difficulty of legislating in this area.

Originality/value

– Explains that employees can also stifle attempts to engage in sustainable diversity management policies. A lack of understanding of local laws or language, or through limited social contacts, can prevent full participation by employees.
