📢Last year, I was invited to work on a commentary about the obstacles of not having the 'right' passport in academia. This originated at European Geosciences Union, were I talked about how I ended up working in geosciences. Today, it's finally out in Nature Geoscience! nature.com/articles/s4156…

Did you read something about how bad things are for Natives & think, "Wow there's a "novel" research idea, I should fill that gap!"? Instead perhaps ask yourself, am I the right person to fill that gap? A key thing we aren't taught in grad school is critical self-reflection. 3/

I'm not saying non-Indig folks can't do research about Indig Peoples. But your "why" needs to be good. Real good. And you need to understand & communicate your positionality as a non-Indig researcher from the start. If you haven't done that, then don't do this research. 4/

Who are your favorite women in STEM accounts that you follow? Comment below do that we can all follow!

Autistic meltdowns aren't what most people think. Can it look like a person kicking, screaming, and thrashing around because something happened that was upsetting or unexpected? Yes, absolutely... \1

I’m overwhelmed by the amount of positive feedback & the number of people that see themselves reflected in what I wrote. This piece was originally 4 times longer & still did not go into enough detail about the problem of not having the 'right' passport 1/3 rdcu.be/dgwo4

Aileen Doran ⚒️🔬👩‍🔬🌍 rocking it at #Goldschmidt2023 presenting the Equity, Diversity & Inclusion in Geoscience (EDIG) findings and speaking about EDI in the Geosciences! UCD Earth Sciences @EAG_DEI iCRAG Centre For years, Aileen has been helping to advance #EDI in Ireland and been a role model to many!

Huge thanks to @suselittle, Pallavi Anand (she/her), and other conveners for inviting us to share our Autistic Voices in Geoscience project this morning. An excellent session on 'Initiatives to advance diversity, equity and inclusion in geochemistry' #Goldschmidt2023.

Millicent Harding of Durham University (and UKPN's EDI Officer) with virtual guest speaker Dr Julian Martin from the Royal Geographical Society (RGS) are discussing all things fieldwork and funding. This workshop is aimed at LGBTQ+ and ethnic minority polar researchers.

Members of EDIG, MineralogicalSociety and Accessibility In Polar Research have written an article about how to plan virtual and hybrid events and the steps to improve inclusion and accessibility: egusphere.copernicus.org/preprints/2023… The article is in pre-print. We would love to have your feedback. Please share/comment!
