June 22, 2020

THE BBC has announced it would focus £100 million from its commissioning budget over the next three years on “diverse and inclusive content”.

The pledge from the UK public service broadcaster comes amid increased debate about racism and discrimination sparked by protests at the death of George Floyd in the US.

“The £100 million investment will support our commitment to diversity and inclusion in our TV output across all genres, including children’s, education and current affairs,” the BBC said.
