What to consider when creating a journalism hiring policy

At El Colectivo 506, Costa Rica’s national solutions journalism organization, has decided to create and share our new hiring policy openly in hopes of increasing the transparency of our processes and sparking conversation within our industry. We did this by working with the consulting firm Efecto Boomerang, which created additional guidelines for media organizations that are interested in creating their own policies for more equitable hiring. For now, this information is only available in Spanish, but if you’d like more information, please reach out to us at [email protected] or +506.8506.1506—or check out our English-language Voices post about this effort.
