DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Virginia Grande (Uppsala University)\, Viraf Mehta (
 University of Göttingen)\, Valeria Cernei (University of Groningen)\, Nel
 ly Marosi (University of Groningen)\, Lucy Avraamidou (University of Groni
 ngen)\n\nThis workshop will facilitate a dialogue between physicists and e
 xperts studying the "culture of physics"\, with the goal of plotting the p
 ath of least resistance toward an equitable and just scientific practice w
 ithin physics.\n\nOur sessions will be coordinated discussions around topi
 cs including:\n\n— Epistemic Injustice: understanding exclusionary pract
 ices in the academy\n— A Focus on Physics: specific issues of accessibil
 ity in physics\n— Towards Epistemic Justice: an exercise on collective s
 ense-making and understanding\n\nWe aim to bring together experts in physi
 cs and its varied social/philosophical/historical aspects to create an act
 ive environment that moves us toward our goal of a just and sustainable un
 iversal science serving a global community.\n\nOur speakers include:\n\n\n

 ou -- either virtually or in-person -- to the historical university town o
 f Göttingen -- "Die Stadt der Wissenschaft" (City of Science) -- which\, 
 in the early 20th century\, was one of the main centres for the developmen
 t of modern physics -- an apt location for pushing the boundaries in inclu
 sive\, sustainable scientific methods and practices.\n\nhttps://events.gwd
