Blizzard Entertainment is thrilled to introduce Pamela Burga to our community. Pamela is our global Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Officer. In this role, Pamela has been working hard to level up and inspire company-wide inclusion efforts for our current and future players and our dedicated employees.

“Inclusion isn’t a destination – it’s a journey where we'll learn and grow together. And this advancement is only possible when we set intentional goals and hold ourselves consistently accountable so we can make meaningful strides,” says Pamela. “Gaming is the most immersive entertainment experience, and we’re building worlds where players have the opportunity to be themselves and feel welcome. These worlds have an incredible opportunity to make an impact, and for over thirty years, Blizzard has created some of the most legendary stories, heroes, and universes that have connected people from all over the world to battle side by side. Whether raiding with friends in Azeroth or joining forces to take down Lilith, that spirit of playful mischief and sense of belonging is something that we’ll continue championing for our players.”
