W+EBS @w-plus-ebs.bsky.social · 13/05/2026"People will have opportunities to have experiences in different places...I think that's interesting too in terms of the stickiness of institutions, including doing things like open inclusive science and what that means. And that means reaching people where they are, meeting them where they are." 000

W+EBS @w-plus-ebs.bsky.social · 13/05/2026"There's a lot of people that are served by organizations, and a lot of people who have been left out of a lot of conversations...it takes a lot of self-reflection to kind of think about 'Would I feel safe coming to this conference?'...it's a conversation that changes from day-to-day, year-to-year." 000
W+EBS @w-plus-ebs.bsky.social · 13/05/2026"It's work for all of us to just be thinking about things as intersectionally as possible, and knowing that all these things overlap; being mindful that there are all different ways of being marginalized, we're not trying to elevate some over others." -Jasmeen Kanwal 000
