Core Commitment

Audit current list to evaluate inclusivity/diversity of publishing programme and identify gaps and opportunities.

Supplementary Commitments

For each book ask ‘Who is represented in this book, and how? Could we include anyone else? Are the characters reflective of the world we live in? Is the representation authentic?’

Discuss inclusion and diversity with colleagues, ensuring it is front and centre in editorial meetings, and challenge those who downplay its importance.

Additional (voluntary) Commitments

Attend events and discussions around the area of inclusion and diversity.
