The Diversity Impact: Celebrating Inclusive Practice Across the Industry.
Join us at the UK Creative Festival at 11.45am this Thursday, 2nd July in Margate
Alongside Shiny and TRS with guest speaker Rupert Reynolds- Mclean from Biscuit, we will officially launch The Diversity Impact at UK Creative Festival – a new initiative designed to celebrate the brands, agencies and production companies continuing to put inclusive values into practice.
At a time when conversations around purpose and diversity can too often become negative, defensive or fatigued, The Diversity Impact aims to shift the focus towards practical progress and positive examples of work being done well.
This session will explore what inclusive practice looks like in real terms, both in front of and behind the camera, and how teams can operationalise inclusion across their processes, partnerships and productions.
Participants will also be taken through useful resources, including the APA To Do List, before learning how to submit work into The Diversity Impact.
Designed for agency teams, production companies and brand-side practitioners, this is a practical introduction to a new industry movement recognising those who are staying true to their values and helping build a more inclusive creative sector.
