C4DISC Webinar – Integrating Values around DEIA and Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs)
In today’s global landscape, the scholarly publishing industry is increasingly recognizing the imperative of integrating values centered around Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA), and sustainability, including the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), into their organizational frameworks. It is essential that the publishing industry and publishing process better reflect the multiple dimensions of diversity within the research community and ensure representation of the very often marginalized or vulnerable communities who are most impacted by SDG-relevant research.
This session will explore the mechanisms and strategies employed by organizations to incorporate these values into their objectives and activities. Drawing upon the lens of DEI, organizations establish DEIA liaisons and foster communities of practice to ensure diverse perspectives are considered at all levels.
