Video games and esports should be welcoming and inclusive to all. Diverse player communities are more fun and more competitive.
We invite you to join us in creating a gaming ecosystem that welcomes everyone and includes all, no matter their shape, size, color, gender, background, disability, or beliefs.
By taking this pledge, you promise to make a difference as a positive and inclusive citizen in your own gaming spaces.
Take the GLHF pledge and link your Twitch ID to unlock the exclusive GLHF global chat badge on Twitch!
Once connected, you can equip the badge in your profile and show your support for inclusive gaming and positive communities in any Twitch chat.
By signing this pledge, you vow to help make your online gaming spaces more inclusive for everyone. You have agreed to play by these seven promises and to hold other pledge-takers to the same standard. That means you will stand up, speak out, and report when you see harassment and discrimination happening in your communities.
If you see someone sporting the badge causing trouble in a stream, please file a report so that our ComfyCrew can review the situation. To ensure that AnyKey represents a universal symbol of respect and inclusion, we will permanently revoke the badge from anyone who is seen to be abusing it.

Distribute copies of this sheet to every member of your group and make sure that signing is a mandatory requirement for participation.
Set up this simple text as a prompt in any chat spaces you oversee like Discord servers or Twitch streams.
AnyKey is an advocacy group that supports diversity, inclusion, and equity in competitive gaming. We amplify, connect, and empower underrepresented players and their allies through research and strategic initiatives.
Through our programs we aim to increase representation, improve participation, and foster more positive community spaces in gaming for players of any kind. AnyKey is made possible through a partnership between ESL and Intel.
