The 澳门六合彩开奖记录 is committed to supporting and improving inclusion and diversity in the chemical sciences, and this extends to our prize programme.
We are taking steps to make our prize portfolio more reflective of the modern world and the diversity of our community.
Prizes
- As part of our ongoing response to key findings of the independent Review of Recognition, which we commissioned in 2018, we are undergoing the biggest overhaul of our prize portfolio in its 150 year history.
- Our five-point action plan provides a roadmap to broadening what we recognise, and the ways in which we do so.
- We will be placing a greater emphasis on teams and collaborations, technicians, teachers, and those who are in earlier stages of their career.
- Excellence will remain the first criterion for winning a prize. However, we will expand what we and others mean by excellence, shining a light on the many types of excellence and the different facets of diversity that are crucial for modern science.
- We are continuing our efforts to expand the pool of people nominated for our prizes.
- We are reviewing our approach to eponymous prizes.
- Since 2015 we have published annual statistics relating to diversity in our prize programme. Download our 2021 diversity data.
Inclusion & diversity
As a professional and membership body, and a leading voice for the chemistry community, we have a responsibility to promote inclusivity and accessibility in order to improve diversity.
Our wider inclusion and diversity strategy to 2025 addresses the core issues at the heart of diversity and inclusion in the chemical sciences, which will in turn – in time – be reflected in the diversity of our prize programme.
- Breaking the barriers – Our 2018 report gave us new insights into the barriers women face in the chemical sciences.
- In 2019 we released a report called Exploring the workplace for LGBT+ physical scientists.
- Bullying & harassment support service – In 2019 we launched a support service for anyone affected or concerned by bullying or harassing behaviour in the chemical sciences.
- Framework for action in scientific publishing – Our framework for action maps out the steps we will take to minimise bias in the publishing processes.
- In 2020, we published our first 澳门六合彩开奖记录-wide diversity data report, which covers aspects of diversity across our activities.
- In 2021, we are carrying out research on race and ethnicity in the chemical sciences. Read our Black Lives Matter statement.
- Our Inclusion and Diversity Fund has a special call to support projects to improve disabled inclusion and accessibility in the chemical sciences.
