SAGE Campus are committed to making our course collection more diverse, equitable and inclusive, by showcasing a diverse range of content as well as representations of people and populations throughout our course suite.
To do this, we are:
Commissioning course authors from a variety of backgrounds including marginalised groups.
Ensuring courses are reviewed by a diverse panel and responding to the feedback in course edits.
Representing diverse communities of people, including BIPOC/BAME and different gender groups, LGBTQIA+ people, and people with disabilities within courses.
Using examples from all parts of the world (i.e. character names, examples used, journal articles linked to, resources that we recommend).
The Editorial team are making diversity, equity, and inclusion representation a priority when developing curricula, content and resource lists for our online courses and course updates.
Below are a few examples from SAGE Campus courses:
