DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Judith Hillier (University of Oxford)\n\nFrom outsid
 e\, the physics community is often perceived as elitist and only for very 
 clever people\, most of whom prefer to work alone. Those of us within the 
 physics community know that physics is a highly collaborative and internat
 ional discipline\, where people have to work closely with others who may l
 ook and sound very different. And yet\, demographic statistics suggest tha
 t a number of groups have historically been\, and continue to be\, under-r
 epresented in physics – not everyone is thriving. \nThis colloquium wil
 l draw on a range of physics educational research to firstly explore why t
 his is important – in a time of significant cuts to funding and uncertai
 nty about careers\, why does the Equity\, Diversity and Belonging stuff st
 ill matter? Secondly\, the question of what are the characteristics of a p
 hysics community where everyone can thrive will be discussed\, followed by
  some suggestions of how\, together\, we might help to build such a commun
 ity.  \n\nhttps://indico.cern.ch/event/1613789/\n\nZoom: https://cern.zoo
