More than words: a guide on inclusive communication
Principles and tools to make intentional, inclusive communication a reality.
With this guide, we aim to challenge perceptions, dismantle harmful norms, and promote a culture of equity, respect and love across our entire Network and beyond.
Why inclusive communication matters.
Effective communication goes beyond carefully chosen words—it requires awareness, compassion, and a deep commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for all.
“More Than Words: a guide on inclusive communication” was crafted by Makers from our global network, to ensure that we communicate with intention and care in everything we do. Whether you want to enhance your organisation’s DEI efforts or integrate inclusive practices into everyday life, this guide offers actionable principles to improve your communication practices.
To better support a wider audience, we have provided a text-only version without imagery and colours, as well as an audio version to enhance accessibility.
We invite all Impact Makers to stay curious, keep researching, and continue learning independently.
If there are specific topics or languages you’d like us to add, please share your thoughts. Through open conversations and shared knowledge, we can learn together and continue to improve our communication.
