We launched our 2-year Workplace Culture Study at gamescom latam this spring 🇧🇷
Next up: devcom Developer Conference 🇩🇪 and gamescom asia 🇹🇭

Independent, international, Not-For-Profit - because silence protects the wrong systems.

Our Workplace Culture Study is a call to anyone who’s felt unheard at work. We’re at #gamescomlatam April 30 to May 2 and will be presenting first findings – and we’re already in São Paulo next week❣️

Let’s meet. Let’s listen. Let’s co-create. 🤝

🚨 Equal Pay Day Reminder: Women in games still earn 26% less than men. Some top studios report gaps over 30% - it’s time for real change. Fair pay = better games, stronger teams. Let’s push for transparency.

Per #GDC State of the Industry Report, the games industry’s mass layoffs aren’t just an economic crisis, they’re a DEI crisis too.

Marginalized devs are disproportionately affected, while #DEI roles are the first to go. How do we stop this backslide?

🚀 Another key takeaway from the #GDC State of the Industry Report: Unionization in gaming is gaining momentum.

With 58% of #gamedevs now supporting unions, the conversation around job security, fair pay & worker rights is growing fast. Is this the solution the industry needs?

#Unionization #DEI

🚀 Excited to announce our first-of-its-kind study on workplace culture in gaming launches at @gamescomlatam.bsky.social latam!🎮

We’ll collect data & present key findings during the event. Let’s create safer, more inclusive workplaces in gaming, starting Brazil! 🌍

Is #GenerativeAI a game-changer for DEI or a threat? 🤖 51% of devs worry about bias, job loss & transparency issues in AI ( #GDC Report). But #AI can drive inclusion if used responsibly:

✅ Diverse datasets
✅ Localized content
✅ Empowering marginalized creators

What’s your take?

#Gamedev #DEI

This February, we're kicking off a new tradition: breaking down key insights from the #GDC State of the Industry Report! 🎮

First up: #Diversity in gaming is growing: 32% of devs are women/non-binary, LGBTQIA+ representation is rising. Progress worth protecting!
