The words and expressions you use that do not discriminate against groups of individuals on the basis of their ability, gender, race, or socioeconomic situation are known as inclusive language. Inclusive language enables your organisation to practice speaking and writing in a way that is accessible to all, and will help with connecting with a wider range of people. The goal of inclusive language is to avoid offence and treat everyone with respect. It achieves this by refraining from using language and specific expressions that stigmatise, discriminate against, exclude, or ascribe negative meanings to the individual traits of particular individual or group.
