Diversity and Inclusion from Ground Up

Diversity and Inclusion in science are big words. Inclusiveness means paving the way to facilitate the participation of all audiences, regardless of their social background, expertise, race and other hundred characteristics. Diversity is embracing our uniqueness. Many research and education projects claim that diversity and inclusion are an integral part of their actions. But are they really? This presentation intends to open the discussion on how to ensure the path towards a career in science is accessible to all, how to start paving the way from ground up. The journey starts in school and success stories of an inclusive and diverse path are not often told. What is your experience?
