The safs, marine bio, oceanography, etc communities are often consisting of people who enjoy and spend time in nature. Gatekeeping “outdoorsy-ness” is a serious issue that often excludes women, people of color, lower income individuals, and more. This can often make it difficult to participate in casual conversations at work/school or after-work/weekend activities, which can create a feeling of exclusion from the community as a whole. Here is a link to a list of organizations that are striving to bring more diversity to the outdoors. As the page says — this is not a complete list. So if anybody has other similar resources they would like to share, please do.

@meganewing Would these be added to our lab website or SAFS in general (or both)?

meganewing commented 4 years ago

@yaaminiv I'm not sure, but these resources would likely be useful to have available at the departmental level.

shellywanamaker commented 4 years ago

added all of these to the lab's DEI resources page on the resource wiki: https://github.com/RobertsLab/resources/wiki/DEI-Resources

yaaminiv commented 4 years ago

Should the "Support Resources at UW" under the code of conduct also be listed with the DEI resources?

yaaminiv commented 4 years ago
