Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Publishing: Recent Advances in the Industry and How to Prepare a More Inclusive Manuscript

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Publishing: Recent Advances in the Industry and How to Prepare a More Inclusive Manuscript Online

With the number of challenges facing the global community, it is imperative that a greater emphasis on including a wider range of diverse viewpoints and backgrounds be made to achieve a better future.  As publishers, editors and authors, we are all stakeholders in improving our approaches to achieve these goals in an equitable fashion.  In recent years, a great amount of effort has been made towards a more inclusive publishing landscape, including initiatives that span across multiple publishers and the development of new and improved policies from a DEI focal point.  Likewise, new guidelines for authors have been developed that not only improve the manuscript preparation process but also create methods for more readily available and inclusive work.  In this talk, recent advances in DEI by the publishing industry are discussed, and best practices for the preparation of an inclusive manuscript are highlighted.
