项目摘要
This project extends to new user communities and non-academic audiences the impact of insights from AHRC project Modest Fashion in UK Women's Working Life led by Prof. Lewis (UAL) and Prof. Aune (Coventry University). The project explored women's experience of negotiating dress in religious contexts: when working for faith-based organisations in the UK (e.g. places of worship, charities) and when travelling to work in Saudi Arabia where they had to wear an abaya. The 12 month project has 3 main activities: 1) Develop, deliver, and evaluate 6-8 sessions in the UK and 1-2 for international workforces in the Gulf region. Target participants include: - Human Resources (HR) professionals and diversity and inclusion specialists (including employee network chairs) in organisations in the UK - Managers and HR professionals operating in the Gulf, including those employed by local, regional and global organisations - Managers, HR professionals, diversity practitioners, and religious and community leaders working for UK faith-based and interfaith organisations - Policy makers and specialists in interfaith and intercultural dialogue in the UK and internationally 2) Work with partners to develop sector-appropriate Continuing Professional Development (CPD) 3) Work with graphic designer to develop 35 infographics and select media images for visual toolkit The project develops and tests training materials in order to: 1) help managers, HR professionals and diversity practitioners understand how organisational requirements for modest dress and behaviour affect staff experience and organisational performance, reaching participants in UK and global organisations; 2) help managers, policy makers and intercultural partners in faith-based, interfaith and policy sectors evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of modest dress cultures and behaviours for their work; 3) help organisations better respond to religiously related codes of modest dress and behaviour by improving awareness of the variety of circumstances in which modesty requirements are encountered; 4) show how organisational performance can be enhanced by recognising that organisational culture, functionality and reputation are affected by how individuals experience workplace modesty requirements (positively or/and negatively, and regardless of personal religious or secular beliefs or practices); 5) support policy and community work on interfaith, faith-secular and intercultural dialogue by exploring how improved knowledge about modest fashion can a) help avoid pitfalls in process and b) generate rich content for dialogue activities. These new directions for project activities are vital at a time when attitudes to religion and claims made in the name of religion fuel division and social unrest. As employers and organisations seek to demonstrate commitment to anti-racism (also in response to the Black Lives Matter movement), our training programme sensitises managers, HR and diversity practitioners to the intersectional aspects of inequalities triggered by dress and appearance. We help participants develop visual skills to understand the role of dress in the workplace, for instance regarding non-western fashion as businesswear or managing gender inequalities in online meetings. For religious leaders, enhanced visual literacy will help remedy problems of appearance-based discrimination for post-holders and employees. For interfaith and intercultural dialogue, community groups and policy makers, insights on the diversity of religious approaches to modesty will increase their confidence to avoid simply deferring to the most conservative or orthodox voices. As religious communities' responses to COVID-19 measures have varied widely (from vaccine fears to worship or wedding attendance), policy makers and politicians urgently require guidance on looking beyond stereotypes (often signalled by dress/hair) to include diverse voices and communities.
该项目扩展到新的用户社区和非学术观众的影响,从AHRC项目谦虚的时尚在英国妇女的工作生活领导的教授刘易斯(UAL)和教授Aune(考文垂大学)。该项目探讨了妇女在宗教背景下谈判着装的经验:在联合王国为信仰组织工作时(如礼拜场所、慈善机构),以及在前往沙特阿拉伯工作时,她们必须穿长袍。这个为期1 - 2个月的项目有3个主要活动:1)在英国开发,交付和评估6-8个课程,并为海湾地区的国际劳动力提供1-2个课程。目标参与者包括:- 人力资源(HR)专业人员以及多样性和包容性专家(包括员工网络主席)在英国的组织-在海湾地区运营的经理和人力资源专业人员,包括当地,区域和全球组织雇用的人员-经理,人力资源专业人员,多元化从业者,以及为英国信仰组织和跨信仰组织工作的宗教和社区领袖-联合王国和国际上不同信仰和文化间对话的决策者和专家2)与合作伙伴合作,制定适合部门的持续专业发展(CPD)3)与平面设计师合作开发35个信息图表,并为视觉工具包选择媒体图像该项目开发和测试培训材料,以便:1)帮助管理员,人力资源专业人士和多元化从业者了解组织对适度着装和行为的要求如何影响员工体验,组织绩效,接触英国和全球组织的参与者; 2)帮助管理人员,政策制定者和基于信仰,跨信仰和政策部门的跨文化合作伙伴评估适度着装文化和行为对其工作的利弊;第三章通过提高对各种情况的认识,帮助组织更好地应对与宗教有关的适度着装和行为规范,4)通过认识到组织文化、功能和声誉受到个人如何体验工作场所谦虚要求的影响,展示如何提高组织绩效(积极或/和消极,无论个人的宗教或世俗信仰或习俗如何); 5)支持宗教间政策和社区工作,通过探索如何提高对适度时尚的知识,可以a)帮助避免过程中的陷阱和B)为对话活动提供丰富的内容。 在对宗教的态度和以宗教名义提出的主张助长分裂和社会动荡的时候,项目活动的这些新方向至关重要。由于雇主和组织寻求展示对反种族主义的承诺(也是为了响应Black Lives Matter运动),我们的培训计划使管理人员,人力资源和多样性从业人员对着装和外观引发的不平等的交叉方面保持敏感。我们帮助参与者发展视觉技能,以了解着装在工作场所的作用,例如将非西方时尚视为商务服装或管理在线会议中的性别不平等。对于宗教领袖来说,提高视觉素养将有助于解决职位持有者和雇员基于外表的歧视问题。对于宗教间和文化间对话、社区团体和决策者来说,了解宗教对谦虚的态度的多样性将增加他们的信心,避免简单地听从最保守或正统的声音。由于宗教团体对COVID-19措施的反应差异很大(从疫苗恐惧到礼拜或婚礼出席),政策制定者和政治家迫切需要指导,以超越刻板印象(通常通过服装/头发来表示),以包括不同的声音和社区。
