Description
This BoF will build on the successful, dynamic Gender Equality BoF held at TNC24 in Rennes, aiming to have an active discussion over the broader equality, diversity and inclusion landscape in the NREN and neighbouring communities. We plan to hold a panel session with short talks – to be invited or volunteered - in this area from across the NREN community leading to an active discussion of progress being made and opportunities to build in this area, with a focus on community building and concrete action.
A linked Community Hub proposal could act as an extension of the BoF, allowing for extended discussions with particular networks following the BoF; this would depend on sufficient attendees being available to provide appropriate staffing of the hub area and/or scheduling specific catchups.
