Telegraph Middle East seeks to reflect the diversity of the Gulf and wider Middle East in its coverage, sourcing and contributors.
Coverage
Editorial decisions should avoid stereotypes, distinguish nationality from government or institutional responsibility, and consider the perspectives of people affected by the developments being reported.
Sourcing
Where relevant, reporting should seek expertise beyond a narrow circle of institutions and public figures. Diversity of expertise, geography, professional background and lived experience can improve accuracy and context.
Language
Descriptions of nationality, religion, ethnicity, disability, gender or other personal characteristics should be relevant, accurate and proportionate to the story.
Accountability
Readers may raise concerns about language, representation or fairness through the Complaints Policy.
