Cognitive diversity is such an important way to come to high value decisions on a board
There’s a lot of discussion about diversity in #boardsofdirectors. While much of this is centred on demographic differences - such as gender, age and ethnicity - there is a growing realisation that cognitive diversity is a pivotal factor in driving board performance and organisational success. Listen in to my #boardwhisperer to why this is so!

What are our Gender, Youth, and Social Inclusion (GYSI) Tools? These are tools that provide a full understanding of how marginalization disadvantages some groups in relation to others and why those disadvantages are linked to adverse health conditions and outcomes. These GYSI tools are designed to enable program staff, implementing partners, and program participants to reflect upon, challenge and change our personal gender, age, and marginalization-related biases, prejudices, and stereotypes. They also help to identify and analyze the different needs and interests of women, girls, men, boys, people with nonbinary gender identities, people living with disability, and other marginalized groups to achieve optimum health outcomes throughout their lives.

Young people between the ages of 18 and 25 are reporting an increase in digital gender hostility on Chinese social media. Numerous factors, including cultural expectations, online anonymity, and societal norms, influence how intense this phenomenon is. The outcomes of such hostility manifest through strained online interactions, reinforcing gender stereotypes, and contributing to a divisive online environment. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for addressing and mitigating the impact of intense gender hate among this demographic on Chinese social media platforms. #GenderHostility #SocialMediaTrends #ChineseYouth #OnlineBehavior #DigitalCulture #InternetGenderIssues #CompellingEssay #IntriguingInsights #MustRead #OnlineSocialDynamics #YouthPerspectives #DigitalCulture #GenderDiscourse #ChineseSocialMedia #InsiderPerspective
✨Nobody loves surveys as much as I do ✨ Data Fairy ✨No buzzwords allowed🏆 Quirk's Award Winner
As a panelist, I've noticed that the gender question in surveys has come a long way. 🙌 You know what hasn't changed? 🤔 Panel profiling questions. 😶 While the majority of surveys I take as a panelist now include other options like 'prefer to self-describe' and 'prefer not to say’, panel questions are still asking about “female”/”male”. Psst... The Insights Association and ESOMAR have great suggestions on how to word demographic questions. #mrx #inclusion #surveys
Two cool things about this article from my colleagues at #NORC-- 1) Using our AmeriSpeak panel to measure changes (from 2014 to 2022) in how Americans identify their sexual orientation and gender identity 2) Communicating it using one of the best data visualiations I've ever seen Have a look...
Results from the 2022 U.S. Trans Survey Early Insights Report reaffirms what is already blatantly obvious to those of us who are gender-diverse: of the over 92K survey respondents, 94% report being satisfied with a lived gender that differs from the sex assigned at birth, with only 3% being less satisfied. We know who we are and what we need! Other people and power centers should stop trying to strip us of agency over our very lives! https://lnkd.in/gEc_FBqM
Today is World Population Day, a day that highlights the importance of addressing inequalities and promoting rights and choices for all individuals. Despite the global population reaching almost 8 billion, there are still numerous disparities based on factors such as gender, ethnicity, class, religion, sexual orientation, disability, and origin. Discrimination, harassment, and violence continue to affect many people. At ARK Venture Studio we focus on identifying innovative solutions to address these systemic risks and create a safer world for everyone. #worldpopulationday #insuranceinnovation #ventures https://lnkd.in/dFFePXn

Transgender Rights are a matter of Identity Without the protection of human rights, there can be no democracy or justification for democracy. We need to have proactive participation of transgender persons in all democratic spaces and systems, including participation in policies framed for their welfare. Transgender Population: As per the 2011 Census, the number of persons who do not identify as ‘male’ or ‘female’ but as ‘other’ stands at 4,87,803 (0.04% of the total population). National Human Rights Commission revealed that in 2017, only 6 percent of transgender people were formally employed. Sex is biologically determined but gender is a social construct. Data collection has been sex-focused and not gender-focused so far, according to a 2020 report by the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), India for the Big Data for Development Network. It mentioned: Also, during the 2011 Census, much of the population was not even aware of this third category in options to gender. Hence, this expected population of 480,000 is amazingly less than the actual population of the country. Delhi, for instance, alone had 30,000 hijras (transwomen) in 2005, according to the All India Hijra Kalyan Sabha in 2005. This contradicts the 2011 Census data which mentioned that Delhi has 4,213 trans people. #trasgenderrights#transgenderpopulation#lawyerlife#rightsofan identity#transgenderrightsseriespart1
