Our excellence is in our diversity

* We use ‘D&I’ as encompassing diversity, equality, equity, inclusion, belonging and transformation.

PEG promotes excellence in editing for all members, regardless of race, age, gender, language, religion, physical ability, socio-economic status, ethnicity, nationality, orientation, and all other social identifiers that have caused marginalisation. Open dialogue fosters a culture of growth among members. The strengths of our members’ different experiences, as well as our shared skills, ensure PEG reflects the society we serve and the quality of the services we aim to offer.

PEG will not condone harmful behaviour, including but not limited to verbal abuse, harassment, defamation, microaggressions, discrimination of members, clients or guests on PEG’s electronic platforms or in other public domains. Offences will be met with a disciplinary procedure and appropriate disciplinary action will be implemented, as stated in PEG’s disciplinary code.
