In Slovenia, we have launched a new initiative to support female colleagues to fulfil our DE&I commitment. The Women to Women programme includes gatherings to discuss a range of topics and educational workshops in a safe and inclusive environment.
In 2023, our activities included sessions with female speakers – both from within the Group and from outside, such as entrepreneurs and professors – who discussed their career paths sharing knowledge and advice.
Our team in Slovenia was further inspired by a visit from Sara Gay, Head of Diversity, Equality and Inclusion at UniCredit Group level, during 2023. Sara’s positive energy and openness – and her sincere desire to find ideas for improving our working lives and the wider environment – was infectious.

It is amazing seeing how you have truly embedded DE&I in your daily activities and practices.”

I am really pleased to see how much emphasis there is on the topic of DE&I in UniCredit. With the Group’s largeness, it gives me hope that society can truly become a safe space for each one of us. Let’s keep on creating changes. Together.”
