LWF22 Inclusive Language in Medical Writing: How are our words perceived when we communicate?

Description

Why should equality be a priority for all of us? Genuine intentions are essential to tackle diversity—when the purpose is not genuine, one ends up with little more than tokenism or empty words.
Equality and inclusive language go hand in hand. Inclusive language is complex and seeks to embrace diversity and treat all people with respect, dignity, and impartiality. What is more complex than diversity?
What nuances of inclusive communication should medical writers be aware of when drafting texts, and how to advocate for inclusive language among our peers and stakeholders?

Participant profile: This workshop is aimed at improving the inclusive language  sensitivity of medical writers. Previous attendance at another workshop is not required.
