The Commission in Wales champions equality and human rights for all, working to eliminate discrimination, reduce inequality, protect human rights and to build good relations, making sure that everyone has a fair chance to participate in society.

Our purpose is to make sure that the Commission's policy-making in Great Britain reflects the needs of Wales and to deliver our programme of work in Wales.

We have two statutory committees, which are here to make sure that the work of the Commission reflects the needs and priorities of Scotland and Wales Find out more about the Wales Committee.

The Commission in Wales will:

• work with the Wales Committee to ensure that Wales needs are taken into account in the Great Britain business plan and implement a programme of work appropriate to Wales
• co-ordinate all aspects of the Commission's work in Wales to maximise impact, minimise risk and add value to the Great Britain strategy
• build a strong evidence base that enables the Commission to speak authoritatively on policy issues and with clarity on what needs to change
• find the synergy between the Commission and Government agendas and develop influencing strategies to deliver the Commission's objectives in Wales
• communicate the Commission's objectives persuasively to engage with stakeholders and generate action
• use the Commission's legal powers to improve access to justice and promote a fair and just society
