Inclusive journalism: Guidelines for a journalism sensitive to diversity, equity and inclusion

Fair representation of individuals is the first step toward a more just society. An international consortium of journalists' unions, public service broadcasters and diversity groups, of which the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) is part, has launched new guidelines and a checklist to support media professionals to produce ethical and fair reporting fully inclusive of society.

The guidelines, enriched by a Best Practice Checklist, provide concrete tools to help journalists, editorial teams, and media stakeholders create more representative, accurate,respectful and stereotype-free content that portray all identities fairly.

They are available in four languages (Italian, English, French, and Spanish).
