Halifax taking steps toward diversity and inclusion, but oversight is needed: Auditor General

The Halifax Auditor General's report, released on January 10, 2024, highlights significant issues with the city's approach to diversity and inclusion. The audit found that Halifax lacks a comprehensive strategy to address these areas, with no clear goals, performance measures, or accountability mechanisms in place. Despite having a diversity and inclusion framework since 2016, the city has not effectively implemented it, leading to a lack of progress in creating an inclusive environment. The report criticizes the city for not adequately tracking or reporting on diversity initiatives, and for not having a dedicated staff member to oversee these efforts. It recommends that Halifax develop a strategic plan with specific, measurable objectives to enhance diversity and inclusion, and to ensure that these efforts are properly resourced and monitored.
