About this Event
From awareness to action is a 2hour-long foundational workshop which was made using academic research and examples to illustrate how unconscious bias can affect our industry. This course offers actionable takeaways you can use to help make the games industry a better place!
We all have unconscious bias—it's hardwired in each of us! When these biases or associations become part of the important decisions we make about the people we work with, it negatively impacts us all. It prevents us from doing our best work. Raising awareness, understanding the impact and taking action is crucial as we strive to create an equitable, diverse and inclusive industry.
