In this session, the EASE Environment & Sustainability (E&S) and Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Committees will give brief highlights and outcomes from Survey on the Impact of the SDG Publishers Compact/EASE Manifesto, and the EDI Survey. Both studies revealed the need for more support for small publishers/individual journals, and for tracking/reporting progress when implementing SDG and EDI policies in their journals.
We will introduce our SDG Checklist, a resource of ideas for actions to take, and a baselining/reporting tool, and will hear from two Editors on using the tool to support their progress.
We will discuss the EDI Survey on Editors’ perceptions and opinions about EDI policies and practices in their journals and organisations. The results uncovered specific needs that are guiding the EDI Committee’s actions to promote the implementation of EDI policies in journals.
