Inclusive Community

Beneficial Practices to Support Inclusion in Geochronology
AGeS3 encourages projects and practices that support, engage, and welcome students and geochronology community members from all backgrounds. Diversity includes and is not limited to ethnicity, race, neurodivergence, gender identity, sexual orientation, income or socioeconomic level, physical ability, veteran/active military status, and family educational history.

CREATING a SAFE and INCLUSIVE RESEARCH CULTURE or EXPERIENCE

AGeS3 provides micro-funding to support multiple programs, all of which include collaborative relationships with power dynamics. Transparent expectations, open communication, identification of participation barriers, and awareness of individual biases are key to creating a safe and inclusive culture and experience for all of the programs. 

In the tabs, we provide resources for Recruiting, for Labs and Mentors, for Graduate Students, and access to Additional Resources. We hope that these resources will help you craft AGeS proposals that incorporate beneficial inclusive practices. We encourage you to consider and adapt the information as appropriate for your project.
