Our dedication to diversity, disability and inclusion

Australian BioCommons aspires to be a project where all people are valued, respected, and supported to realise their full potential. Our new Diversity, Disability and Inclusion position statement reflects our commitment to turn that aspiration into action and provide a safe, fair and enriching environment for all our staff, collaborators and broader community, one that reflects the evolving expectations of the diverse partners and sectors we serve.

Our dedication to diversity, disability and inclusion is more than just a statement, it’s a continuous journey towards creating a workplace where everyone belongs. How we approach inclusion was discussed with the whole Hub team at our recent Offsite meeting, where we established our inaugural Inclusion Committee. Our commitment has been added to the About section of our website where we describe what we do and how we do it, alongside our existing Code of Conduct. Both of these documents embody the BioCommons values of Respect, Integrity, Collaboration, Communication, and Innovation.

By fostering a culture of accountability to our colleagues, collaborators, and the communities we serve, Australian BioCommons is committed to driving meaningful change within our team and across the broader scientific community.
