Diversity & Inclusion Policy
At CGWall Sports, we believe that sports are the ultimate equalizer. On the field, court, or track, what matters is talent, determination, and spirit—not race, gender, religion, or nationality.
As a media organization with roots in India and a vision focused on the United States and the world, we are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion in both our newsroom and our editorial coverage.
1. Our Editorial Commitment
We recognize the power of storytelling. The stories we choose to tell shape how our audience sees the world of sports. Therefore, we are committed to:
-
Inclusive Coverage: We strive to provide balanced coverage that goes beyond the major men’s leagues. We are dedicated to increasing our coverage of Women’s Sports (such as the WNBA, NWSL, and WTA), Paralympic sports, and athletes from underrepresented communities.
-
Unbiased Reporting: Our writers and editors are trained to use inclusive language and to avoid stereotypes in their reporting. We focus on the athlete’s performance and achievements.
-
Diverse Voices: We actively seek to interview and feature athletes, coaches, and experts from diverse backgrounds to ensure a wide range of perspectives in our analysis.
2. Our Workplace Philosophy
CGWall Media is a global family. With our headquarters in Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, and contributors analysing games for the US audience, our strength lies in our cultural diversity.
-
Equal Opportunity: We recruit, hire, and promote based on merit, passion, and expertise. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, caste, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, national origin, or disability.
-
Remote-First & Global: We embrace a digital-first workflow that allows us to work with talent from different parts of the world, bridging time zones and cultures.
3. Zero Tolerance for Harassment
We aim to create a safe environment for our staff and our community.
-
We have a Zero Tolerance Policy for harassment, bullying, or discrimination of any kind within our organization.
-
This extends to our digital spaces. We do not tolerate hate speech or discriminatory comments in our articles’ comment sections or social media channels (see our [Community Guidelines]).
4. Accessibility
We are committed to making our digital content accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities.
-
We are continuously working to improve our website’s compatibility with screen readers.
-
We strive to provide alt-text for images and captions for videos to ensure our sports coverage is inclusive for visually and hearing-impaired sports fans.
5. Accountability
We know that Diversity and Inclusion is a journey, not a destination. We are open to feedback from our readers and our team. If you feel we are falling short of these ideals, or if you have suggestions on how we can improve our coverage of underrepresented sports, please reach out to us.
