Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (EDIB) are essential for a fair and representative scholarly publishing ecosystem. But where should journals and institutional publishers start?
To support editors and publishers in creating a meaningful and impactful EDIB strategy, we have developed a comprehensive EDIB Getting Started Guide that ensures fair treatment and full participation for everyone, including those historically underrepresented in research and publishing.
What the guide offers
• An introduction to why EDIB matters in open scholarly publishing
• Practical building blocks for developing an EDIB strategy
• Tips to help journals remove barriers, improve representation, and create more inclusive publishing environments
Alongside the guide, we have created a brief test to help you assess your EDIB skills through practical examples found in scholarly publishing
