A guide for more diverse and inclusive journalism
WHOSE KNOWLEDGE? A Guide to More Diverse and Inclusive Journalism is a practical information package on how to strengthen diversity and equality in the journalistic media – both as an individual journalist and as part of editors and teams. The guide is based on interviews with media professionals and media researchers.

The guide has been produced by RARE Media and its partners as part of the RARE X Diversity research project funded by the Media Research Foundation. The research component of the project involved interviews with ten media professionals or researchers and an open public survey, which attracted over 550 responses
