Dear colleagues,
I’m writing to share an important qualitative survey led by the International Science Council (ISC), the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP), and the Standing Committee for Gender Equality in Science (SCGES). As a member of the project’s expert group, I’m contributing to the development and analysis of this initiative.
The survey explores how scientists experience participation in scientific organizations, such as academies, scientific unions, research councils, disciplinary associations, and young academies. It addresses access and leadership pathways, organizational culture, perceived benefits and barriers, and experiences related to recognition, inclusion, and discrimination.
Your perspectives will directly inform recommendations to advance more inclusive and equitable participation in science. Scientists at all career stages, genders, and disciplines are encouraged to contribute. The survey is open until 5 August 2025.
Thank you in advance for sharing this within your networks and encouraging participation among colleagues and peers.
Best regards,
