Ethnicity

Ethnicity: Champion of the Year
This category acknowledges exceptional individual contributions to boosting representation of lawyers of colour within the legal profession, covering private practice, in-house and the Bar, and all levels of seniority. Judges will be looking for evidence of involvement/leadership of key initiatives to attract and retain ethnic minority lawyers within the profession or involvement in broader, industry-wide initiatives. 

Ethnicity: Best Initiative to Attract and Retain Talent
