Hi Sacha, four universities involved in IJI project want to revitalize journalism curriculum around the idea of inclusive society. We encourage students to rethink their relationship with sources (research after research confirms that sources are usually officials and white, male, upper middle class, not in a wheelchair...) IJI project started this year, deals with all diversity reporting issues, and hopefully will expand (web site content included!) in the upcoming months.

Thanks Russell for opening this space and thanks Sacha for the thoughtful first post. True, the content is missing from educational and media coverage. That’s why AUT and Canterbury, along with two European universities, started the Inclusive Journalism Initiative project. Details can be found here: http://inclusivejournalisminitiative.com.
