Description
Diversity is crucial to boosting productivity and innovation, fighting prejudice and discrimination and improving social and economic standards. Nonetheless, high-energy physics and astrophysics remain one of the less diverse fields in science. With ever-growing international collaborations reaching thousands of members from all around the world, diversity and inclusion issues have become critical. In this presentation, I will discuss the current situation in terms of diversity and inclusion in high-energy physics and astrophysics, highlighting progress and challenges. I will also discuss actions and best practices undertaken to promote diversity and inclusion in large collaborations, organisations or research institutions.
