How we helped

Seven EDS teams reviewed over 300,000 pieces of clip art to ensure that all images were culturally sensitive.

“A seven-member multicultural team from Executive Diversity Services completed a thorough diversity review of Microsoft’s clip art collection in 1999 and 2000. The review focused on ethnic, cultural and religious sensitivities from a visual and indexing perspective. The EDS team is very knowledgeable, timely in the delivery of their work and a pleasure to work with. I appreciated the flexibility they demonstrated as schedules and priorities changed throughout the project.”
