Creative Scotland has appointed 12 people to its new Equalities, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) Advisory Group.
They will serve for two years until January 2023. The group will meet every three months, with meetings facilitated by Creative Scotland’s Head of EDI, Milica Milosevic.
Milosevic said: “Establishing this EDI Advisory Group is a further step in ensuring different voices are better reflected across the cultural life of Scotland.
“The group will be an invaluable source of advice for Creative Scotland enabling us to gain increased insights into key issues. Together we will work to address the lack of diversity, challenge poor practices, and positively support career progression.”
The appointees, who were selected via an open call, are: Sophie Amono, Barry Church-Woods, Professor Doris Ruth Eikhof, Michael Fellowes, Lewis Hou, Ashe Hussain, Cate Ross, Kerieva McCormick, Jim Muotune, Fadzai Mwakutuya, Kirin Saeed and Miss Annabel Sings.
