How can I use inclusive language in my surveys?

Using inclusive language in surveys means avoiding terms that may exclude or offend certain groups. You can start by using gender-neutral terms, avoiding jargon, and being mindful of cultural sensitivities.

Can you give me some examples of inclusive language?

Sure! Instead of asking 'What is your gender?' you can ask 'What is your gender identity?' or use options like 'Male, Female, Non-binary, Prefer not to say'.

What about questions related to race or ethnicity?

For race or ethnicity, you can provide a list of options that reflect diversity, such as 'Asian, Black, Hispanic, White, Other' and include an option for 'Prefer not to say'.

How do I ensure my survey is accessible to everyone?

To ensure accessibility, use clear and simple language, provide alternative text for images, and ensure your survey is compatible with screen readers.
