Sustaining inclusion: practical strategies and leadership for lasting EDI change
Hybrid: Online - Australasian Neuroscience Society Meeting 2025, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia
For the final session of the From Declaration to Action series, ALBA and the Australasian Neuroscience Society (ANS) are partnering to deliver a unique hybrid event dedicated to embedding equity, diversity, inclusion (EDI), and wellbeing into the core of academic institutions.
Broadcast live from the ANS meeting in Hobart (Australia), the session will begin with an engaging EDI panel featuring neuroscientists and institutional leaders sharing hands-on experiences, lessons learned, and practical strategies for creating inclusive and supportive research environments. The panel discussion will highlight approaches that have successfully transformed organisational cultures and improved wellbeing across academic settings.
The livestreamed panel will be followed by an interactive online workshop offering participants the opportunity to exchange ideas, explore real-world case studies, and gain actionable tools to institutionalise EDI principles, develop accountability frameworks, and ensure the long-term sustainability of inclusion efforts.
From Declaration to action workshop series
The ALBA Declaration on Equity and Inclusion serves as a vital call to action within the neuroscience community, yet feedback, gathered through a survey sent to all Declaration organisational signatories, indicates a pressing need to make these goals more accessible and actionable. To address this, we are launching a three-part webinar series designed in a workshop format to provide practical guidance on implementing these principles in daily practices. Each webinar will feature experts with hands-on experience in action items listed in the Declaration. More
This workshop is part of the ALBA-IBRO 'From Declaration to action' series and organised with the support of the International Brain Research Organization, a founding partner of the ALBA Network.
