The communities of astrophysics, astronomers and high energy physicists have been pioneers in establishing Virtual Research and Learning Networks (VRLCs)[1] generating international productive consortiums in virtual research environments and forming the new generation of scientists. These environments are key to improve accessibility and inclusion for students and researchers in developing...

Diversity plays a crucial role in advancing scientific research. Building a successful career in physics involves not only conducting research, but also collaborating with colleagues, attending conferences, and networking. However, members of the LGBTQ community often face additional challenges and barriers that can hinder their progress in the field.
The LGBTQ+ CERN group is a...

energy physicists, who investigate the properties of $b$-quarks and
other particles at the luminosity frontier. In order to achieve our
aim of a successful physics program, it is essential that we
emphasise contributions from a diverse community. Belle II has thus
far focused on diversity in gender and sexuality, among... -

Gender Equity in High Energy Physics in India: Status and Initiatives
The scientific community in India, as their counterparts elsewhere, is still struggling to achieve gender parity in STEM fields, particularly in physics. This is not a desirable situation since an equitable contribution from all genders can only enrich any enterprise. In contrast to the inherent objectivity in science,...
