                                        @lucilleamoore @dr_lrwyatt @A4VDiS Challenges to this include: 1) definitions, 2) accessibility, and 3) valuation. #OpenConCascadia19

                                      @lucilleamoore @dr_lrwyatt @A4VDiS Definitions - showing a report by faculty by unit, race/ethnicity/gender. Data prior to 2000 is not accessible. How do we define the data we're collecting? Need to use the same language to ensure we capture the same things. #OpenConCascadia19

                                    @lucilleamoore @dr_lrwyatt @A4VDiS How do we define minorities? How do we define under-represented? How about under-represented minorities? Semantics and definitions matter in measuring this. Need to be explicit in our definitions. #OpenConCascadia19

                                  @lucilleamoore @dr_lrwyatt @A4VDiS Access - where is the data? No good and available official data on how many people police kill every year. They capture data about weather, but not police brutality. Why does it not exist? Needed for accountability. #OpenConCascadia19

                              @lucilleamoore @dr_lrwyatt @A4VDiS Valuation - Are you listening? We don't value qualitative research/methods. Have you talked with people? Are you listening? Valuing the data you've collected and really making decisions. #openconcascadia19

                        @lucilleamoore @dr_lrwyatt @A4VDiS @hardsci How to address this at SIPS? Code of conduct, hackathons dedicated to diversity, make diveristy/equity/inclusion/access part of everybody's work. Make everything inclusive from the start, just a add on. #openconcascadia19

                  Challenges - supporting many kinds of diversity, giving people a seat at the table (managing the transition), need to address methods, in outreach promoting good work, but not dismissing difficulties/problems. #openconcascadia19

    @TaraRobertson @mozilla @CarolMN Couldn't have joined project if it wasn't paid. Open work often requires volunteer labor, which can exclude multiple groups. They can't join projects because it puts them at risk. #openconcascadia19

      @TaraRobertson @mozilla @CarolMN Students are a major portion of workforce in open science. Invisible/volunteer labor creates exclusions and is not sustainable. They need to be paid and be financially secure! #openconcascadia19

        @TaraRobertson @mozilla @CarolMN Better working conditions. Research assistant jobs are precarious. Part of the larger problem in higher education. Need to increase research on labor in open scholarship, and awareness of these precarious conditions. #openconcascadia19

          @TaraRobertson @mozilla @CarolMN Increase awareness about people in part-time appointments and priorities. Power dynamics need to be more horizontal. Make it more financially possible for everyone to participate in open science. #openconcascadia19

                @jtowns_ Research needs to benefit the community. It needs to give back, and just not take away from marginalized populations. Diversity of knowledge and viewpoints is important. #openconcascadia19

                    @jtowns_ @TaraRobertson @mozilla @tararobertson: Diversity fellowships put a lot of undue pressure on under-represented early career researchers and don't set them up for success. #openconcascadia19

                      @jtowns_ @TaraRobertson @mozilla @dr_lrwyatt: diversity fellows are required to pull a heavy load. Pay them more than a regular fellow, because of all of the emotional labor involved. #openconcascadia19
