D&I Days & Dates

D&I Calendar dates

DCA’s Diversity and Inclusion Days and Dates Calendar is a practical, year-round planning tool that helps organisations align awareness dates with their broader inclusion goals — engaging employees, showcasing initiatives, and driving meaningful progress in diversity and inclusion.

Please note, our calendar does not include individual health promotion or cultural and religious holidays, and for these you can refer to the Australian Government’s Calendar of Cultural and Religious Dates and the World Health Organisation’s Global Health Days Calendar for guidance. This calendar also does not include public holidays with the exception of 26 January which holds dual significance: it is recognised nationally as Australia Day and is also observed as a day of solidarity and awareness for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people as Survival Day. A full list of public holidays is provided by the Australian Government.

Know a diversity day that we’ve missed?  

We recognise that this is not an exhaustive list of all significant dates and should be considered a guide only. If you would like us to add something to this list, please contact us via this form. We will not be able to include all suggestions, and our focus is on days that support diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
