We discuss the results of a Community EDI Survey run in July-September 2021 by the Network of Networks, a union of research networks that are largely funded by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and fall under their remit. Responses were received from members of 19 networks, with, relevant to this meeting, 70% of the 267 responses coming from members of the UK Acoustics Network. We discuss implications of the results for how we organise and support attendance at events across our networks, reflecting on feedback to questions on barriers and possible enablers to attending in-person events, and on feedback as to what does and doesn't work for events blending in-person and online attendance. To put this work in context we survey relevant literature on the value or otherwise of blended and online events for supporting the diverse membership of a network. The survey results also provide interesting feedback on the diversity of our networks and how inclusive our networks are perceived to be as a function of the identity of the respondents. We reflect also on lessons from this experience regarding how and how not to attract a strong response to surveys of this type. |
