In 2009 the foundation organised the public procurement ‘Campaigns aimed at raising awareness of equal treatment and developing tolerance’, which was won by Alfa-Omega Communications OÜ.
The winning company explained the principles of equal treatment to employers and introduced the experience of different companies with ethnically diverse staff. The winning company also introduced people who live in Estonia, but whose native language is not Estonian, and cooperation between people of different nationalities to the general public.
The Radio 4 shows created as part of the procurement can be listened to here and information about the multicultural company competition organised by the Äripäev business newspaper is available here. The ‘Different nationalities enrich companies’ instructional material was also prepared as a result of the procurement.
The activities of the procurement were financed by the Ministry of Culture and the European Fund for the Integration of Third-Country Nationals, which was established as part of the general European Union programme ‘Solidarity and management of migratory flows’, on the basis of the operational programme of the Estonian Integration Programme 2008–2013.
