Hands-on Training

In 2022, we partnered with the Poynter Institute for the “How to Shape More Inclusive Content” workshop. Rolled out across our offices globally, the training focused on best practices for unbiased reporting across Yahoo editorial, social and programming.

Makers

MAKERS is a Yahoo brand dedicated to accelerating equity for women. Its 2022 annual conference brought more than 300 women leaders and allies—Jessica Alba, Constance Wu, Cynt Marshall and Katie Stanton to name a few—together to push forward on representation, racial justice, reproductive rights and more. This three-day event sets the agenda for women in the workplace and in the world.

“I loved interacting with hundreds of minds discussing work culture, ethics, and inclusivity, and brainstorming over challenges faced and how to overcome them.”

In the Know: Changemakers

In sync with the Heritage Months, In The Know by Yahoo brings the voices of Gen Z together for a night of celebration. Each event featured creators and entrepreneurs discussing how to build brands with ties back to heritage and culture, and supported community-owned businesses and venues.

Technology for all

For 20 years, Yahoo has led the way in advancing accessible technologies—and we plan on doing the same for the next 20. We’re deeply committed to making sure that all of our products are “born accessible,” and that our workplace accommodates people with visible and non-visible disabilities.

Among our recent highlights: Our Yahoo Fantasy Sports app is the platform of choice for the All-Blind Fantasy Football League and we strive for closed captioning on 100% of our videos.

We offer our employees training in designing accessible technology and hosting accessible meetings, and our Dublin office has recently piloted a sensory audit to create a more inclusive environment for employees with autism.

Power Partnerships

DEI takes a village. We’re better able to make progress on our goals when we partner with organizations supporting underrepresented audiences and professionals. In 2022, we joined forces with a wide array of editorial, tech and social impact partners for initiatives that we’re looking to continue in years ahead.

Diverse stories and tellers

In 2022, Yahoo partnered with The National Black Journalists Association (NABJ), The National Hispanic Journalists Association (NAHJ) and the Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) to create fellowships that bring diverse journalists to Yahoo.
