为了提高南极科学的包容性、多样性、公平性和可及性,我们必须建设更加积极和包容的南极野外工作环境。自2018年以来,国际Thwaites冰川合作组织(ITGC)一直致力于通过各种活动为实现这一目标做出贡献,包括创建一个开放获取的“现场和船舶最佳实践”指南,参加赛前团队动态会议,以及调查赛后反思和经验。我们报告ITGC采取的具体行动及其成果。我们发现,强大的、受支持的早期职业研究人员为转变文化的战略带来了新的和重要的视角。我们发现,高级领导层的参与和参与对于扩大参与和获得资金支持工作也是至关重要的。所有外地小组成员参加的实地前讨论特别有助于设定期望、提高归属感、描述外地工作最佳做法以及共同创造积极的工作文化。
To increase inclusivity, diversity, equity and accessibility in Antarctic science, we must build more positive and inclusive Antarctic field work environments. The International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration (ITGC) has engaged in efforts to contribute to that goal through a variety of activities since 2018, including creating an open-access ‘Field and Ship Best Practices’ guide, engaging in pre-field season team dynamics meetings, and surveying post-field season reflections and experiences. We report specific actions taken by ITGC and their outcomes. We found that strong and supported early career researchers brought new and important perspectives regarding strategies for transforming culture. We discovered that engaged and involved senior leadership was also critical for expanding participation and securing funding to support efforts. Pre-field discussions involving all field team members were particularly helpful for setting expectations, improving sense of belonging, describing field work best practices, and co-creating a positive work culture.
