Diversity and Inclusion Statement
We kindly ask workshop organizers to add the following Diversity and Inclusion Statement to the call for papers:
“We kindly ask authors to adopt inclusive language in their papers and presentations (https://dbdni.github.io/pages/inclusivewriting.html and https://dbdni.github.io/pages/inclusivetalks.html), and all participants to adopt a proper code on conduct (https://dbdni.github.io/pages/codeofconduct.html)”
We also encourage workshop organizers to explicitly promote diversity and inclusion by
- having diverse PC members, co-chairs and session chairpersons, considering, if possible, some PhD or postdoctoral students in the organization
- encourage women and underrepresented communities to submit papers to the workshops on the research outcomes of their activity
- ask authors of the accepted papers to provide a short bio, getting to help the audience know them
