Sunita Gloster AM said, “The media and marketing industry has the power to influence and dismantle some of society’s biggest problems – in their messaging, content and reach. To represent missing and misrepresented parts of the community on screens, to eradicate harmful stereotypes in our content and to show a world we aspire to have. Equality and diversity within our ranks are essential ingredients in that responsibility. Conversations are a catalyst for change and I look forward to this important discussion about how we can accelerate intentional action.”
