Abstract

Gender equality, diversity and inclusion are very high on ESO’s agenda, and the organisation has undertaken a number of initiatives in these areas over the past decade (Primas, 2019). The reasons behind these actions are not limited to addressing the issue internally; ESO also aims to raise awareness, with the aim of setting high standards that will motivate members of the scientific community, and hopefully beyond. A diverse and inclusive environment constitutes the most favourable terrain for the growth of ideas, creativity, and the development of original projects — key drivers of success.
