SBS unveils suite of diversity measures following disclosures of racism

SBS has unveiled a range of diversity initiatives, including appointing two Indigenous Elders in residence to “provide support and cultural empowerment” and creating two new executive roles.

The moves come in response to accounts of racism and toxicity perpetuated against former Indigenous staff.

Tanya Denning Orman, a Birri and Guugu Yimidhirr woman, will become director of Indigenous content, in addition to her existing responsibilities leading NITV. And Sarah Yassien has been promoted to director of corporate strategy.
