Subject: Looking for best practice in making conferences/events inclusive
Dear All,
In our department we are hoping to develop a best-practice guide about how to ensure a diversity of attendance, participation and voices at conferences and events
- particularly encouraging women's contributions, but we are also thinking about BAME individuals or those with a disability (such as autism) that could affect their participation. I wonder whether anyone knows of any best practice examples or guidance about
how to make conferences more inclusive of a diversity of people?
Many thanks in advance,
Claire
