Streamlining Diversity in Media Coverage (with subtitles) I UNESCO Master Class Video 2

Media often simplifies matters when dealing with disabilities, leading to misrepresentation and incomplete ideas about persons with disabilities.
Video #2 of UNESCO Master Class on Disability Equality in Media covers the importance of focusing on the person, not the disability, when reporting and producing media content. It offers practical recommendations for when you have persons with disabilities as information sources, and how to avoid their objectification.
The Master Class Video Series on Disability Equality in the Media, hosted by Sophie Morgan, is a global initiative launched by UNESCO to strengthen the capacity of media organizations to integrate the principles of diversity, inclusion and accessibility into editorial policies and media programming, content production, and management practices.
Let’s together remove barriers for audiences with disabilities!
