I think the single biggest issue at the minute is an underappreciation of the importance of intersectionality in the D&I context.


The use of single-metric (e.g. BAME) access to D&I schemes can result in flawed outcomes in situations where true diversity isn't actually achieved.


It's important, too, to remember that D&I in law is a comparatively new thing, and we're at its cutting edge. While there will almost certainly always be more which can be done, it's important to bear in mind that these problems are easier to analyse and call out than they are to fix in a practical sense, and change will doubtless take time.
