CIMA x BDRB present: "Next Steps" Equity | Diversity | Inclusion

DATA COLLECTION + ANALYSIS

In this, the 10th and final workshop in CIMA x BDRB “Next Steps” Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Workshop series, we will explore the role of race-based data collection and its centrality to the BDRB Declaration and Report.

We will explore the importance of responsible collection, analysis, and use of this data in identifying and eliminating systemic and structural racism within companies and organizations in the music and creative industries, and the ways in which the lack of such data perpetuates systemic racism; as well as the steps which can be taken to diminish and ultimately eliminate it.

Participants will learn about the ways in which race-based data can uncover inequity, improve outreach, and access, and inform policy and service provision, grant programs and jury selection processes, and increasing representation of systemically excluded music and creative industries professionals.

Overall, this workshop will equip participants with a starting point in the collection, analysis and use of race-based data in uncovering inequity and increasing representation of systemically excluded music and creative industries professionals.

WORKSHOP AUDIENCE:

Media practitioners and journalists in print, digital, new media, tv, radio & broadcast including but not limited to: Journalists, Production and Production Teams, Reporters & Announcers, Editors & Producer and Publicists working in the media sector.
