Diversity and Equity Statement The Gulf Estuarine Research Society affirms our commitment to an all-inclusive scientific community, and fully stand behind CERF’s statement on Justice and Equity for all, posted below from the CERF website: The Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation is committed to equitable treatment for all. Human suffering and the trauma imposed by racism are intolerable in the CERF community. As a professional society, we are committed to enabling futures unfettered by racial injustice. These ideals exist within our Federation’s mission, and our commitment to inclusion is articulated in our Rising TIDES (Towards an Inclusive, Diverse and Enriched Society) initiative. Creating equal access to knowledge and eliminating inequality in science requires the full commitment of every CERF member. It also requires daily practice, now and always. CERF commits to understanding and eliminating barriers overt and subtle, and joins the call for justice. | NEWSSea Level Rise Workshop grants! APPLY NOW!
