Why we ask for this information
The feedback provided will be used to inform our Equalities, Diversity and Inclusion work. The data from this survey will be shared with LUX Scotland, Dundee Contemporary Arts, Collective and the project funder the Paul Hamlyn Foundation.
Collecting this data is also part of our anti-racism work. We want to collect this information to help us to measure our progress towards creating a fairer, more equal and ethnically diverse artist moving image sector in Scotland, in an accountable way.
We have devised the questions in this form to reflect data requested by our funders.The questions are tick box with the option to self-describe. We have chosen this to allow data comparison and measurement. We acknowledge that although this is useful in some respects, such ways of gathering information can be limiting and does not reflect the full scope of someone’s identity and/or experience. As we develop our approach to data gathering and feedback, we will revisit this to see if there are more effective ways of gathering this information.
If you have any questions on why this data is being gathered and how it will be used, or would like to offer feedback, please get in touch with Lauren La Rose at Lauren.larose@dca.org.uk.
