Session

Develop an inclusive mindset

When developing, have you ever thought about the potential global and diverse audience that we can reach? Today 65% of the world is engaging on the internet. As a result, it’s possible that you are acquiring a far greater audience than ever before. That is why it's essential that we strive to write for a global audience, with inclusiveness and diversity in mind, in either our front-facing scripts or in the documentation. Key concepts include using gender-neutral references, avoiding prejudice and inference, replacing outdated terms and dialogs, promote non-violent references while keeping a conversational tone in your writing.
In this session you will:
• Discover ways to write with inclusiveness and diversity in mind.
• Learn how to phrase appropriately to avoid bias and harm
• Avoid language that can negatively affect people with disabilities
