The new campaign urges conferences, event organisers and venues to support gender-balance, diversity and inclusion on stage.
Innovation Women, an online visibility bureau for entrepreneurial, technical and professional women, has announced the launch of a new campaign calling on event organisers and venues to declare their events “No-Manel Zones.”
“Manel” is industry jargon for a panel of featured speakers at a conference or event consisting of all men. The No Manel Zone campaign urges conferences, event organisers and venues to create policies, procedures, guidelines and/or recommendations that support inclusion, diversity and gender-balance for their speakers and presenters.
