Diversity and Inclusion – How Kuwait
At How Kuwait, we believe that true innovation and success are built on the foundation of diversity. Our commitment to fostering an inclusive environment goes beyond words—it’s embedded in every aspect of our company culture and shapes the way we operate. We strive to amplify every voice, celebrate diverse perspectives, and create opportunities for all to thrive.
Our Promise
Building a Diverse Team
We are dedicated to creating a workforce that reflects the rich cultural diversity of Kuwait. By the close of 2024, we aim to have 30% of our team, including leadership roles, filled by individuals from underrepresented backgrounds. Our recruitment strategies are focused on embracing diverse talent and ensuring an equitable, inclusive hiring process.
Content That Mirrors Our Community
We ensure our content represents the vibrant and varied experiences of our audience. By collaborating with writers, photographers, and experts from diverse backgrounds, we commit to producing at least 25% of our content through diverse perspectives, allowing us to better serve our global readership.
Ongoing Learning and Awareness
Inclusion is a continuous journey, and our team is committed to learning along the way. All How Kuwait employees will undergo regular training on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), including topics like unconscious bias and inclusive leadership. Open conversations will be encouraged to foster empathy and understanding within our team.
Evaluating and Improving
We’re committed to examining our own practices to identify and eliminate any potential biases. By the end of 2024, we’ll conduct a thorough review of our content, policies, and procedures to ensure they are inclusive. Additionally, we will establish a DEI advisory board to guide our long-term initiatives and monitor our progress.
Engaging with the Community
Our commitment extends beyond our team—we actively seek to make a positive impact in the community. We will partner with organizations focused on diversity and inclusion in the Gulf region, providing support through collaboration, funding, and volunteer efforts. Our goal is to uplift marginalized voices and foster meaningful change in the communities we serve.
Accountability and Transparency
We recognize that accountability is key to fulfilling our promises. We will regularly share updates on our progress and welcome feedback from you, our community. Please reach out to us at howkuwait.com@gmail.com with your thoughts and suggestions.
Together, we can create a more inclusive and equitable future.
Thank you for joining us on this journey.
Warm regards,
The How Kuwait Team
