 f DEIA initiatives in terms of workplace diversity – but what does DE
 IA mean for metadata? As our digital and real lives become increasingly int
 ertwined, businesses and users increasingly expect digital expression of th
 eir authentic selves and values. As language, user needs, and societal norm
 s evolve, metadata governance and quality must adapt to stay relevant and p
 rovide an equitable experience for all.\nA DEIA metadata governance program
  can navigate the competing demands of representation and privacy, ensure a
 ccurate and authentic representation, and maintain the consistent, high-qua
 lity metadata needed for inclusive digital experiences. A well-maintained g
 overnance program ensures compliance with legal and ethical privacy require
 ments Where DEIA metadata overlaps with PII (personally identifiable inform
 ation).\nThis session will outline the compelling reasons to start a DEIA m
 etadata program now, provide a roadmap to get started, and identify risks a
 nd pitfalls to avoid in the creation of a program and governance.\nContent 
 will include:\n\n	Overview of the fundamentals of DEIA metadata\n
 Real-world DEIA use cases\n
 Best practices in developing and governing a DEIA metadata taxonomy\n
 Legal issues and other pitfalls to consider regarding DEIA metadata\n
 Effective strategies to advocate for the adoption of a DEIA metadata progra
 m and governance\n\n
