澳门王中王 Director of Inclusion & Diversity, Marsha Ramroop said:
鈥淟ast November the 澳门王中王 launched the Inclusion Charter, inviting members and practices to commit to actions to drive forward inclusion and diversity within the profession. This year, we're using 澳门王中王 Radio as the platform to support that commitment with information, guidance, best practice and insight, through 28 hours of live radio.
I am excited to combine my two areas of expertise 鈥 broadcast journalism and EDI, to bring 澳门王中王 Radio to life and broaden the reach of these important conversations.
In my role as host, I鈥檒l also be listening closely, learning and reflecting so that we can continue to develop the targeted actions necessary to drive forward inclusion and diversity within the sector.鈥
