Destiny Chambers brings years of industry experience to the DE&I Advisory Board. As Chair of the New York Festivals Advertising DE&I Board, she will preside over the board and 3D award jury members. The Advisory Board members will also join the panel to judge the new DE+I Specialty Award. Her collaborative leadership approach honed while working with industry and social justice organizations will provide the board with support and ensure that DE&I work from agencies around the globe is recognized and rewarded.

“This is an important step not only for NYF, but industry awards at large. The depth and thoughtful nature of the 3D Award criteria will be a differentiator among DE&I awards and a needle pusher for how we identify, recognize, and celebrate truly diverse, equitable, and inclusive work. The board selection process has also been one of thoughtful curation. Bringing in marketing and advertising leaders who have made marks on the industry and their communities but have at times been as unseen as the distinguishing elements we call for in these submissions,” said Destiny Chambers, VP, Head of Marketing, Lippe Taylor.

Destiny leads the marketing and communication efforts at Lippe Taylor. She has shared her expertise and made a substantial impact on numerous elite organizations. She has served as a 2021/2022 Forbes Communications Council member, a founding member of the Women Insider Network, and an alumni and former Youth Empowerment program leader for Urban Underground, an organization focused on youth-led social justice campaigns in the areas of health, education, public safety, and juvenile justice reform.

The 2022 3D DE+I Work of the Year Specialty Award honors work, individuals and organizations that are taking meaningful steps to create a more diverse, equitable and inclusive society. The 3D Awards celebrate work that supports, protects, represents and uplifts historically underrepresented groups. Using the 4R Framework created by P&G, Reach Representation, Relevance, and Resonance, the judging criteria is centered around work that authentically catalyzes action for real and sustained impact.

Entries into the 3D DE&I Specialty Award will be judged by the Advisory Board and additional jury members who will be invited to participate on this esteemed panel.
