ABC Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Plan 2023-26 – The ABC has launched the new Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Plan 2023-26, the framework that will both support and build on the strong workplace culture of inclusion and diversity at the ABC.
With the broader ABC strategies, including the ABC’s Five-Year Plan 2023-2028, Reconciliation Action Plan, and key content and divisional plans, the new Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Plan 2023-26 demonstrates a commitment to strengthen and reflect Australia’s diversity through the ABC’s workforce and content.
ABC Managing Director David Anderson said,
“The ABC has told and shared the stories of Australians for more than 90 years and we are committed to reflecting the rich diversity of the nation.
“This plan builds on the strong foundation for diversity we’ve already created and adopts ‘inclusion in practice’ as a fundamental principle.
“The ABC is committed to fostering a culture that values the experiences and knowledge of all employees, and creating a respectful environment where everyone is welcomed.”
Mr Anderson said an inclusive environment allowed diversity to thrive and inspired greater creativity in everything the ABC did.
The ABC’s Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Plan focuses on five key pillars, including inclusion in practice; a diverse workforce; inclusive content, products and services; connection with Indigenous and diverse communities; and accountability and transparency.
These pillars will support the ABC to continue to meet the obligations of its Charter and to foster a sense of national identity inclusive of the community we serve.
