Building an Inclusive Future in Robotics

We are a community of talented, diverse individuals who want to ensure that everyone feels included in the robotics field – from academia to industry.

We are committed to fostering inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility within the wider robotics community.

Inclusion

Inclusivity is about fostering a culture where diversity feels like belonging—captured by Verna Myers’ quote, “Diversity is being invited to the party; inclusion is being asked to dance.”

Diversity

Diversity refers to the range of differences within groups or communities, both inherent (like ethnicity, gender, age) and acquired (such as education, experience, and values).

Equity

Equity emphasises fair treatment and opportunities by valuing differences rather than expecting conformity, and unlike equality (which gives everyone the same opportunity and can inadvertently benefit the most privileged), equity ensures individuals receive the specific support they need to access those opportunities.

Accessibility

Accessibility means accommodating diverse needs and preferences so that the greatest number of people can participate, recognising that not everyone can use the same resources and opportunities.
