Self Identify for Your Visual Assets (Optional)

How would you like to be described?

As part of Destination BC’s commitment to becoming a more inclusive organisation and brand, we have changed how our visual assets are described and searched for in our digital asset management (DAM) system, which is used by tourism partners across the province and around the world. We want to ensure our brand, content, and advertising is inclusive of those from underrepresented equity-deserving groups. 


It’s important to us to do this in a way that accurately and authentically represents you, so we are inviting you to decide how the photos and videos of you will be described. 


Participation is entirely optional. You are welcome to choose example words, write in your own words, or not give a response. If you choose not to respond, we will ensure that the descriptions and keywords used in our DAM system do not make assumptions about your identity.



*If you identify as First Nations, please feel free to include any additional details you’d like us to know (i.e., a specific Nation).







Any personal information you provide in the fields above is collected under section 26(c) of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act for the purposes of improving the label and search functionality of the DAM system. By filling out the fields above, you agree as of today’s date that this information will be associated with visual assets that you are featured in and as such may be disclosed to and used by other tourism organizations and businesses performing searches in the DAM system. If you have any questions about the collection of this information, please contact:
