Gaming and esports Wellbeing Diversity & Inclusion

The esports industry thrives on its diverse player base and passionate online communities, yet it faces significant challenges when creating environments that are truly inclusive for all.  

During this panel discussion, a range of esports players and gaming enthusiasts will spotlight the achievements of diverse players and communities while openly discussing areas that need improvement. They will also explore the unique contributions of women, racial minorities, and other underrepresented groups who are shaping esports from players to content creators and community leaders. This will include stories of individuals who have broken barriers and built communities that foster acceptance and encourage participation.  

The conversation will also address the challenges that women and people from minority backgrounds face, including issues of representation, access to opportunities, and ongoing harassment in online spaces.  

Educators and students will learn about the impact that diverse voices bring to gaming culture and how this enriches the broader esports experience.
