of Individuals Living with Disabilities in the Geosciences
The IAPG is a formal signatory of the Consensus Statement Regarding Access and Inclusion of Individuals Living with Disabilities in the Geosciences.
The American Geosciences Institute (AGI) disability consensus statement, written as a community document in 2015, serves to increase awareness of the challenges we face and the responsibilities we have as a community, and provides examples of ethical practices toward this group of individuals.
As stated by AGI, this is an important step on our collective journey to providing full access and promoting inclusion of geoscientists with disabilities into our academic programs and workforce.
