About Equity, Diversity & Inclusion at ASTRO 3D

The ASTRO 3D Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) Committee is committed to cultivating a sense of belonging for all ASTRO 3D members. We strive to engage with individuals and institutions to identify best practices and empower everyone to make positive changes.

Our current focus is on assessing our overall progress in meeting the goals set in the original EDI action plan, especially in light of the short and long-term effects of the pandemic. Our activities were grouped into three main categories:

1. 1. Professional training opportunities;
  2. Resource development, and
  3. Assessment of EDI strategies.

We also organised a Black Lives Matter working group that is sub-committee to EDI and charged with carrying out the BLM action plan developed in 2020.
