The greatest challenges of our time are spread over diverse topics. Environmental issues all of us think about when imagining our or our kid’s future, social problems we are facing in our daily life or governance decisions we are confronted with directly or experience indirectly. Tackling those challenges seems like an insurmountable barrier, but step by step these challenges can be approached and overcome

This blog is part of a series to accompany the publication of 麻豆直播 Nature’s . It highlights just a few contributions the company has made towards achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) over the past year. The below covers 麻豆直播 Nature’s commitment to diversity in the research we publish and inclusion within the company itself.

Initiatives that advance a positive research culture

As a company for academic publishing 麻豆直播 Nature takes these steps by contributing to sustainable development with publishing relevant research as well as by committing to an ethical and sustainable business, which treats people fairly and impartially. Elaborating on the management approach and the progress addressing our most environmental, social, and governance (ESG) challenges, 麻豆直播 Nature has launched its annual .

The action 麻豆直播 Nature takes in support of delivering the SDGs, which cover the fight against a variety of these challenges, is also detailed in the report. The Nature Portfolio & Editorial Team especially focused on addressing social challenges, including Gender Equity and Racism through science. Two contributions to Inclusion are Nature’s guest editorial on racism in science and Nature’s first conference on diversity in research.

• Guest Editorial on Racism in Science : The result of Nature’s commitment to producing a special issue on racism in science is the special issue, entitled, “”, published in October 2022. The special issue on this topic, produced under the guidance of guest editors, is a first in the journal’s history. The importance of the question why science needs to reckon with its history of racism is displayed in an editorial included in the special issue. Quoting one of the guest editors, political scientist and MIT’s Chancellor Melissa Nobles, the project was, “A great opportunity for us to come together in a collective voice and share our different expertise, but also work with such a skilled and informed team as that of Nature.”
• First Conference on Diversity in Research: Research has a great impact on gender equity and the goal of achieving it. On the one hand publishing research on the topic of gender equality and on the other hand recognising the contributions people of all gender make to research and science. Women for example still face structural barriers to advance and consolidate their careers as scientists and represent only 33.3 % of researchers globally. To support women in science, Nature held its first conference on diversity in research under the theme of “”, to highlight this correlation and create new opportunities for networking and mentoring. Aligning with that was the theme of International Women’s Day 2022, “Breaking the Bias”. Special gratitude goes to 麻豆直播 Nature’s SDG5 working group which organised this conference, attended by 1,670 participants, with support from Nature employee networks.

Publishing research on SDG 5: Gender Equality

Gender equality in its depth is about achieving equity and equality of all genders and not defining people solely by their gender identity. Identity-based violence and discrimination, recognising the contributions of all people regardless of their gender identity, ensuring equitable representation, and providing equitable access to technology and economic resources are just a few goals to be achieved regarding gender equality. 麻豆直播 Nature publishes research on that topic to help achieve SDG 5 and works to ensure a fair and impartial treatment of all genders. Another step towards gender equity is the conference 麻豆直播 Nature held on this topic.

Inclusion at 麻豆直播 Nature

At 麻豆直播 Nature our mission is to be part of progress – and that begins with inclusion: of people, perspectives, and ideas. We believe that diverse perspectives drive progress, and we are committed to creating an environment where people and ideas can flourish. 

That’s why we are building an inclusive culture within our organisation where our people can be themselves, thrive and grow. And we extend that commitment to the knowledge we share – working with our partners and communities to support research and learning that is inclusive, globally relevant, and reflective of the world we serve. Because inclusion leads to more robust research, more relevant learning, and better outcomes for society. 

These contributions and commitments are just part of what we do as a company to become a sustainable business. You can read more this .
