Diversity and Inclusion

Paper Giant is a purpose-driven strategic design organisation. We are proud to be committed to diversity, access and inclusion.

Our purpose is to help organisations create positive impact through work that considers the perspectives and lived experience of the people it affects. We recognise that embracing a wide range of perspectives and lived experiences leads to the creation of more inclusive and accessible products, services, and policies.

We’re continuously learning, and are committed to supporting diversity and inclusion for our team, contractors, clients, and the people we engage with. This statement is a reflection of our aspirations,expectations and commitments.

We respect and value differences in regard to nationality, race, culture, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, social background, disability, family, marital status and age.

All of our people are responsible for ensuring that our culture and environment demonstrates respect for diversity and is welcoming, accessible and inclusive.

Paper Giant is committed to improving diversity and inclusion outcomes through:

Treating people fairly

Paper Giant strives to create a culture of respect and dignity for our team, contractors, clients, and all people we engage with. We value the uniqueness of each person and strive to create a sense of belonging for everyone involved.


Supporting people who are marginalised or disadvantaged

We acknowledge that systemic barriers exist and actively seek to reduce their impact. We take proactive steps to welcome those who are and have been disadvantaged or marginalised.


Promoting respect for diversity and inclusion

Paper Giant nurtures an inclusive culture that is respectful and embraces diversity. Our goal is to foster understanding and respect for difference, and to build trust and cooperation among our people and stakeholders.


Ensuring accessibility in our engagements

We endeavour to create outcomes and environments that are accessible and inviting for all individuals who engage with us. We are committed to both seeking and providing various access options to ensure inclusivity.


We strive to bring this statement alive through actions and continue to learn and grow in our accessibility and inclusion practice. If you would like to speak to us about this statement, please get in touch via hello@papergiant.net.au.

We also have an active, ongoing practice of Cultural Competence that informs how we work together and with others.
