Respect Magazine promotes diversity in France

Keywords: France, magazine, initiative, discrimination, media campaign, project

Respect Magazine is a glossy publication. Its high quality image and content is actively fighting the stereotype that youth or minority targeted publications are cheap or poorly made. Each edition focuses on one theme, for example, Gender issues, Religion, Suburbia or Equal Opportunities in the work place. The content includes in depth interviews, feature length articles, photos and social or cultural news. The team that creates the magazine is as diverse as the topics they report on. Journalists, NGO workers, students, volunteers, artists and writers form a group of people from totally different social, cultural and professional backgrounds that all share the common goal of combating discrimination and promoting diversity. To keep on top of the latest issues Respect magazine

organises frequent editorial meetings where anyone is welcome to join in and discuss their ideas for content. This open door policy means that people from hugely diverse backgrounds come together and interact about challenges that are affecting them and the society around them.
