[U01-02] A new perspectives for equality, diversity and inclusivity in Geosciences

★Invited Papers

*Alberto Montanari1 (1.University of Bologna)

キーワード:Equality, Diversity, Inclusivity, European Geosciences Union

Geosciences aim to address key environmental challenges that are relevant to society. Some of these challenges, such as climate change, overexploitation of water resources and the water-food-energy nexus, have a global dimension and increase social inequality and disparity. This is one of the resons why equality, diversity and inclusivity are highly considered by the geoscientific community nowadays.
In particular, the expertise of geoscientists can support an equalitarian and synergetic approach to mitigating the risk of global crises. To reach this goal, we need to look at our research targets and organize our scientific activities with a new vision. The current time is offering a window of opportunity to promote an inclusive and equalitarian approach to global challenges, which should be rooted in the organisation of scientific perspectives and activities. The key to success is to look at equality, diversity and inclusivity with a broad vision, including cultural diversity and pluralism of opinions and thoughts, with an innovative consideration of the value of minorities.
The talk will introduce the current initiatives and activities of the EDI Committee at the European Geosciences Union, by presenting statistics and trends of the EGU membership and awards programme.
