As part of the NBA’s Diversity & Inclusion Strategy, we have signed up to the Pride Pledge.

- The Pride Pledge (www.pridepledge.co.nz) is an initiative which aims to raise visibility for safe space in our communities. The focus is to raise awareness of the values of safety, inclusiveness and visibility for all LGBTTQ+ (rainbow) people. The NBA has have committed to improve Rainbow inclusion across our business community by taking the Pledge to support our Newmarket business community to become more inclusive.

- All businesses and workplaces have the opportunity to commit to the pledge to making them more visible and appealing to LGBT consumers and employees as safe spaces.

- Rainbow Tourists actively seek out Rainbow friendly businesses and make up more than 10% of the tourism market by numbers and much more by spend.

- The NBA has the unique priority to stand out from other business districts in leading the way when it comes to being a visibly Rainbow friendly business precinct.

- Working with Pride Pledge, we will make available diversity and inclusion training to members to support businesses in improving their workplace inclusion which NBA will be supporting for members.
