deia work in organizations has
been shown to improve productivity, innovation and moral. We will discuss how
to continue this work in the current climate. Part
of this will involve how to protect and support our
students, staff, colleagues, fellow humans and
ourselves. Part will be a discussion of DEIA in physics
and an ongoing initiative to improve the situation in
science. We will discuss ongoing work in the
American Physical Society - Division of Plasma Physics
(APS-DPP) to improve our Diversity, Equity,
Inclusion and Accessibility (DEIA). While this is very
much a work in progress we have started to implement an
Evidence Based Approach (EBA) to move forward and
site selection process to choose "appropriate" locations
for meetings and conferences. These approaches will be
presented with a discussion about the need and other
efforts in this area (some specifically aim toward the
DPP LGBT+ community and Women in Plasma Physics.
Discussion will be welcome (strongly encouraged).
Underlying this presentation is the idea that everyone
deserves safety (psychological and physical) as they
pursue their goals.
