Internationalisation and Diversity
Join us at this year's ALPSP Annual Conference and Awards for a variety of sessions tackling the topic of Internationalisation and Diversity. Amongst other things, we will be discussing
- How we can ensure that publishing more accurately reflects the diversity of the world we live in.
- How we can address diversity in gender, geographic location, culture, career stage, or discipline and measure and report on our success.
Internationalisation and Diversity strand sessions
Thursday 12 September (10:45-11:30)

Learn how publishers are utilising their external networks and communities to develop their organization’s international profile, whether via the diversity of their editorial boards or partnerships with institutions or societies
