LEAPS IDEA
for Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Anti-discrimination
The League of European Accelerator-based Photon Sources (LEAPS) brings together Synchrotron Radiation and Free Electron Laser user facilities in Europe in a strategic consortium that aims to actively and constructively ensure and promote the quality and impact of fundamental, applied and industrial research for the benefit of European science and society.
As international large-scale research infrastructures where interdisciplinary scientific topics are explored, LEAPS facilities are inherently diverse and dynamic. As an European consortium focusing on scientific excellence, LEAPS recognizes that scientific communities, as all communities, are built by individuals informed by their own experience, circumstances, unconscious biases and greater society.
In order to achieve the goals of inclusion, diversity, equity and anti-discrimination, it is LEAPS' commitment to provide a range of specific tools, tailored to each of the LEAPS facilities, making them the ideal location for large international, interdisciplinary and intermixed teams to thrive and achieve their highest potential.
As an active member of LEAPS, PSI contributed to the development of the tools. The toolbox and the link to the official LEAPS IDEA website can be found below.
