IMPALA adopts its Diversity and Inclusion charter

IMPALA, the pan-European independent music companies’ trade body, has adopted a 12-point diversity and inclusion charter.

As part of the ongoing process, IMPALA will roll out initiatives and projects intended to make change sustainable longer term, with targets of 5-10 years. Those commitments include the mapping and sharing of examples of best practices across Europe; the appointment of a diversity advocate for the lobby body's board and each of its committees; and the launch of a new program of European and national awards to cast the spotlight on those in the music space working on diversity and inclusion.

“Inspiring change is a vital part of IMPALA’s mission and this is what our charter seeks to achieve,” comments Helen Smith, executive chair of IMPALA. Very much “a European approach,” she continues, “we have focused on fundamental rights within a broad and pragmatic package which can be rolled out on a voluntary basis and adapted to each country.
