A set of rules and practices, inclusive communication aims to ensure that all people are represented on an equal footing. In this sense, it reflects a society that is committed to equality between women, men and non-binary people, fights against all forms of discrimination and seeks to value diversity. Inclusive communication refers to written, spoken and visual communication.
