The IOP is currently running a consultation, in partnership with PricewaterhouseCoopers, to understand experiences, insights and suggestions which can help us remove the barriers to wider participation in physics. To develop this understanding we are undertaking a wide-ranging engagement exercise with members and non-members and within this, we have launched a survey that asks about people’s experiences in physics and how we can make the subject and the IOP more welcoming and supportive to people from all backgrounds.
The IOP Executive Team will use the results of the survey, together with the outputs from other activities in the consultation, to draft an action plan to accelerate progress on this vitally important issue.
The deadline to complete the survey has been extended to 31st december: http://iop.org/yourvoice
