Equity and Diversity

FLEET Equity and Diversity policy and events guidelines can be found at fleet.org.au/equity. ICSCE will facilitate an inclusive and respectful meeting environment that encourages the free exchange of ideas and welcome voices from people of all ethnicities, genders, ages, abilities, religions, and sexual orientations.

To help us increase diversity amongst speakers and attendees at ICSCE10, we seek your help in distributing the conference widely to your collaborators and network.

Partner with us

We are seeking a Conference Equity and Diversity partner to help provide additional flexibility for delegates with caring responsibilities. With your sponsorship, we will be able to provide support for:

  • accompanying care-provider (partner, grandparent, nanny, etc…)
  • expenses associated with arranging alternative care-provider at home in the delegate’s absence

Please contact Dr Tich-Lam Nguyen at coo@fleet.org.au for more details on ICSCE10 Equity and Diversity Sponsorship package.

CHILDCARE

Conferences provide valuable opportunities for researchers to expand network, develop collaborations and build partnerships. To help eliminate the conflict between research career development and family commitments, ICSCE10 will provide free on-site childcare to delegates travelling with children aged between 1 and 12. Please note that child care will only be available during the Conference sessions and not during the social events.

If you require childcare service at ICSCE10, please let us know your requirements by filling out the below form. Places are limited and will be available on a first come basis.
