There are a lot organizations that tout the word "diversity" in their self-description, so our staff editor Paul makes these suggestions:

  1. This category was made for entities (organizations or individuals) that concentrate on diversity as a large part of what they do. For a counter-example, it is not for a business that aims to hire a diverse bunch of employees.
  2. This category should not be used when the entity represents one group and its "diversity" efforts mainly pertain to that one group. Instead, use categories appropriate to that group. For example, an LGBT organization may show some words about diversity, but you see that what they specifically do is to promote LGBT interests; so you should use LGBT categories specifically.
  3. In short, this category was made for entities that promote diversity broadly and primarily. In other cases, use other categories. It's all about helping our visitors find more of what they're looking for and less of what they're not.
