Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

PAY WHAT YOU CAN

We believe that everyone can help shape the future of marketing.

If you want to join the community but can't afford the membership, this is your chance.

Our goal? To set the standard for making our community accessible to people from all walks of life, promoting diversity, equity and inclusion.

So what do you mean by ‘Diversity, Equity & Inclusion’ (DEI)?

  • Diversity is valuing different perspectives and intentionally designing our community to reflect a range of backgrounds. This representation can be through many dimensions, including gender identity, age, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation and ability.

  • Equity is creating consistent, systematic, fair and just treatment, access, opportunity, and advancement for all individuals while working to remove any barriers that might prevent someone’s full and equitable participation in the Conscious Marketing Movement.

  • Inclusion is ensuring that everyone feels like they belong and have a voice that is heard.

And how will you achieve it?

We’re striving to create a more diverse community where all our members feel represented, included and safe. A place where people can be themselves and be respected and valued for it. That's why our DEI membership offers personalised lower rates starting at €15 per month, ensuring that everyone can be a part of our vibrant community.

But who is the DEI membership for?

Our aim is to make sure anyone who shares our values can join our community. If you fit into any of these groups, you could qualify for a personalised lower membership fee:

  • Early Career Professionals:
    If you are in the early stages of your career, meaning 1-3 years after graduation, we're here to help.

  • Unemployment or Underemployment:
    We understand that career paths can have ups and downs. If you're currently unemployed or facing challenges in finding stable employment, we've got your back.

  • Underrepresented Backgrounds:
    If you feel you are often left out of mainstream discussions because of who you are, we’re here to support you. This includes but is not limited to individuals who are people of colour, LGBTQ+, have a disability, and/or come from disadvantaged backgrounds.

If you don't fit into these groups but still need help, please click here to apply and tell us why. We appreciate your unique perspective and what you can bring to our community!

Words matter, and we strive to use the most inclusive and respectful verbiage possible.

But language evolves, and sometimes we might get it wrong. If that’s the case, please let us know how we can do better here.

Who supports the DEI membership?

We're actively looking for sponsors who can play a vital role in making these personalised reduced rates possible. By becoming a sponsor, you not only help individuals from diverse backgrounds join our vibrant community, but you also contribute to a more inclusive and equitable future for all.

If you're interested in supporting this important initiative, we invite you to get in touch with us here.

Your sponsorship can create opportunities for those who may otherwise be excluded. Together, we can make the Conscious Marketing Movement more inclusive and positive for everyone.
