Our Commitment to Diversity

Dear SAGANet Community Members,

At SAGANet.org, we continue to receive invaluable support that enables us to advance our education programs and foster a diverse and inclusive scientific community. As we navigate an ever-evolving world, our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion remains unwavering.

Let it be said with no ambiguity: we want to emphasize SAGANet’s vision and commitment to diversity.

Our mission is:

"To uplift the scientific endeavor by empowering meaningful and authentic public engagement in scientific exploration and to foster a positive culture of public engagement among all scientists."

SAGANet remains dedicated to upholding and disseminating scientific knowledge, promoting respectful viewpoints, and encouraging thoughtful conversations. We look forward to ongoing collaboration with our partners to achieve these goals.

We further commit to encouraging the diversity of individuals engaged in science and facilitating the success of anyone interested in pursuing their passion for science. Diversity includes, but is not limited to, age, race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status, or veteran status. We believe that a diverse community is a more innovative, productive, and connected community.

We strive to create an environment where all voices are heard and valued, and where everyone has the opportunity to contribute to and benefit from scientific discovery.

Science is rooted in committed research, aimed at understanding our world and our place within it, and at sharing these discoveries with all people. We stand firm in our belief that science should be accessible to everyone and that diverse perspectives are essential to the progress of scientific knowledge.

Thank you for being a part of our community and for your continued support in making SAGANet a beacon of inclusivity and scientific excellence.

Your SAGANet.org admins.
