ZDS is actively involved in several international and Slovene projects as the project manager and as a partner. Regularly, we are applying for new projects for foreign and domestic competitions. The projects presented are an important channel of international lobbying and for gaining new knowledge.

The project addressed five discrimination grounds: race and ethnic origin, disability, age, religion or belief and sexual orientation. Human diversity, which too often causes conflicts and generates discrimination, can actually become a source of creativity in employment, especially with the use of an inclusive approach. A limitation of diversity brings the loss of rich potentials, knowledge, skills, capabilities and experience of a diverse and talented workforce. Companies are increasingly recognizing that diversity is not just a moral argument or a question of meeting legal obligations.
The partners involved in the project opened up the topic of an ageing workforce in the frame of employers’ associations and their members in their countries and thus also reached a wider public.
