Statement on Equality, Diversity, and Inclusivity of the European Federation of Associations and Centers of Irish Studies 

 

As an organization defined, in its very nature, by diverse perspectives, a multilingual membership and international reach, the European Federation of Associations and Centers of Irish Studies (EFACIS) is committed to providing space where members of our community meet and discuss their research, artworks and practice in a climate of diversity, inclusivity, and respect. Both at our conferences and in any related EFACIS activities, we are committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity of race, class, ethnicity, faith, gender, gender expression and identity, sexual orientation, age, and physical ability. We adhere to the same principles as a recruiter and employer. EFACIS expects all members and participants in our events to adhere to the principles to which we commit ourselves here, so that, communally, we can foster and maintain the welcoming and respectful environment that all of our members deserve.
