Abstract

When the U.S. Extremely Large Telescope Program (US-ELTP) comes online, observing proposals will be required to include a Research Inclusion (RI) Plan to apply for telescope time, in which aspects of equity, diversity and inclusion of a project are judged alongside science and data management plans. However, we recognize that PIs are unlikely to be adept at writing adequate RI plans. To mediate this tension, US-ELTP’s RI Initiative is developing a Collaborative Toolkit that provides the astronomical community with a framework for building and metrics for assessing collaborative partnerships. The RI Collaborative Toolkit will benefit proposers by providing the tools and expertise to develop good, meaningful inclusion plans. The RI Toolkit will also benefit reviewers by providing recommendations for how to assess the inclusivity of research proposals. In this presentation, we discuss the structure of and topics covered in the RI Toolkit.
