BBC Studios Imposes 20% Diversity Quotas On All Future Productions

Joining the ranks of studios and entertainment institutions pushing diversity quotas, BBC Studios Productions has announced that 20% of all projects’ on-screen and production talent must be of a designated minority.
On Monday, the studio announced the new measures, billing it as “four significant steps to improve diversity and inclusion across its content and teams.” The first initiative requires an “Inclusion Rider,” a term coined by Dr. Stacy Smith in a 2014 op-ed in The Hollywood Reporter.
