How the Beauty of Inclusion Awards were born?
This Award is the continuation of a long commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at L’Oréal.
14 years ago we launched a competition called the Disability Awards. When we thought about continuing this year, it was clear that we needed to be bigger, and more inclusive than ever, in every sense of the term.
And so the Beauty of Inclusion Awards were born, and L’Oréal teams rose to the occasion.
