Keywords Celebrates Women’s History Month!
At Keywords, we’re on a purposeful journey to increase diversity, embed equitable practices, and foster inclusion across our organisation. Women’s History Month is an opportunity to recognise women’s contributions to the video games industry, and reflect on what we can do better.
In solidarity with this year’s International Women’s Day theme, #EmbraceEquity, Keywords Colleagues across our network of studios took part in a number of fantastic initiatives to focus greater attention on women’s rights and gender equality.
