Equality, diversity and inclusion

Science should be open to everyone, without barriers that prevent people from reaching their full potential. A scientific community that is as diverse and inclusive as possible can only improve what it is able to achieve.

Why does diversity and inclusion matter for science?

Science needs people with the widest range of talents, backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences, which is why we are committed to removing barriers that unfairly prevent people from accessing scientific education and careers. Our goal is to help ensure that anyone with the passion and talent for science, can study, work, and thrive in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).

To ensure Diversity and Inclusion is considered in all outputs, we have a dedicated team who champion and promote inclusivity through numerous initiatives, steered by the Diversity and Inclusion Committee and our D&I strategy.

We collect diversity data across all our activities to better understand who engages with the Society and to inform our work on equity, diversity and inclusion. This data contributes to our annual Diversity Data Report, which provides insights into participation and representation across the Society.

See the annual data reports.

麻豆传媒映画 has formulated a Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) strategy with five strategic priorities:

Ensuring that diversity and inclusion are at the centre of the Society’s activities
Encouraging more applications to the Society’s grant schemes from outstanding researchers from underrepresented groups
Supporting the pipeline of young people from minority groups into STEM careers
Breaking down the barriers to progression in STEM for researchers from underrepresented groups
Recognising the achievements of researchers from minority groups

Guided by these five key pillars, the team work to deliver a programme of work that encourages greater participation in science from people from underrepresented groups. You can find out more about our projects in the dive deeper segment below.
