Additionally, we have robust accountability frameworks to ensure that our humanitarian partners uphold humanitarian principles and meet the most urgent needs without discrimination based on race, nationality, religion, gender, disability or other protected characteristics.</p><p>Sir Philip Barton signed the BITC Race at Work Charter on day one of the FCDO.

Sir Tim launched the FCDO Summit Programme - to support and develop BAME colleagues, in preparation for SCS/SMS. We have also launched the Bridges programme - a positive action mentoring programme for more junior staff, including those with a disability, BAME or from a lower socioeconomic background.
