In 2019, November 12 to 15, Japan will host the first IAU symposium on
Astronomy for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. The symposium aims to be a
roadmap to action, highlighting the role diversity and inclusion play in
producing better science, contribute for competitiveness and innovation and
to focus on specific steps leading to change on the field. This symposium
is aimed at all astronomy professionals that wish to bring inclusiveness to
their research and diversity to their teams, practices, work environments
and institutions.

This first IAU symposium will lay grounds for future IAU Resolutions on
Equity, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policies in Astronomy. The IAU
Resolutions will outline a set of viewpoints and subsequent proposed
actions, in alignment with the new IAU Strategic Plan 2020-2030 and will
ultimately seek official endorsement by the Executive Committee and the IAU
General Assembly in Busan, in 2021. A first presentation of the resolutions
will be done during the meeting in Japan. *With the same inclusive and open
approach that permeates all dialogues of the symposium, the organization
wishes to invite everyone to join the project and contribute in their own
unique way. *

Registration and Abstract submission are now open, and the organization
welcomes contributions on the following topics:

   - *Learning from Best Practices in Disabilities and Establishing a
   Framework to Address Equity and Equality in Astronomy Organizations,
   Facilities and Academic Institutions;*
   - *Identify and Address Barriers to Access: fostering a climate of
   inclusivity;*
   - *New Technologies for Accessibility: diversity and disability;*
   - *Astronomy for society — Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Empathy in
   Communicating Astronomy;*
   - *Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): gender equality and
   empowerment;*
   - *IAU100: Global Perspectives on Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in
   Astronomy;*
   - *Diversity in Research: identity, ethnicity and culture in research
