CEDAR email: AGU24 Fall Meeting: ED017: Facilitating a Positive Social, Emotional, and Productive Culture in the Earth and Space Sciences

[Jones, Mcarthur Jr CIV USN NRL WASHINGTON DC (USA)]

Dear Colleagues,

Please consider submitting an abstract to the this DEIA+ Session at the 2024 AGU Annual Meeting. We look forward to hearing about your exciting work, best practices, and valuable contributions/efforts on any and all DEIA+ work you are doing in the community and/or at your home institution.

Session Number: ED017
Session Title: Facilitating a Positive Social, Emotional, and Productive Culture in the Earth and Space Sciences
Session Description: Earth and Space Sciences continue to be disproportionately white and male with a notable lack of participation from historically excluded groups, including racial and ethnic minorities, women and non-binary persons, first generation college, and rural and economically disadvantaged regions. Recognizing that better science is a product of the broad set of experiences and perspectives, many research organizations seek to broaden the participation from these underrepresented groups. However, continuing to try and broaden participation in Earth and Space Sciences while working in the post affirmative action environment represents some unique challenges. This session invites submissions from those leading efforts to recruit and train individuals from historically excluded or marginalized groups, while navigating this new and nuanced landscape. We hope to share experiences and best approaches, lessons learned, funding and other opportunities, and share other wisdom. If possible, time will be devoted to a discussion between the speakers and the other participants.

See you in Washington DC!

Nicholas Gross, Eddie Gonzales, Erika Hathaway, and McArthur Jones Jr.
