What is media diversity?

  • It is the presentation of different ethnic groups as prominent characters.
  • It is the presentation of different cultures in media resources.
  • It is the presentation of actors with different characteristics with important characters.

Media diversity promotes representation and this allows children to see themselves in different stories, as they identify with the characters' characteristics, culture, and ethnicity. This is important for children's self-recognition and for this reason, children are important in media diversity studies.
