Our focus will be on utilizing person-first or identity-first language, making a clear distinction between sex and gender, and incorporating gender-neutral and inclusive terms and pronouns. Additionally, we will provide alternatives to commonly used expressions that may dehumanize marginalized communities and identify and replace discriminatory language, phrases, and themes.
