[Air-L] ⚡Sign STS Petition⚡ remote access & financial fair play for all 🌱

[Jascha Bareis]

Dear AoiR researchers,

Many of you are active in the Science and Technology Studies (STS) as 
well. What concerns STS conferences also concerns AoiR conferences.

Here the petition:

We call on Science and Technology Studies scholars advocating for remote 
access and financial fair play to sign this petition.

As scholars committed to intersectional justice, we call STS researchers 
across the globe to sign this petition to demand all STS conferences and 
meetings to be hybrid by default. Event organizers in STS with the 
resources and infrastructure available to facilitate hybrid 
participation, should ensure remote access becomes the standard practice 
attending our meetings and conferences. Further, they should provide 
financial transparency concerning the budgets and spendings of the 
representative associations concerning the realization of their 
conferences and events.

*The petition demands*

/1. STS councils, boards and conference committees, and event organizers 
of the international and local STS associations around the globe provide 
remote access to ensure hybrid participation becomes a standard practice 
in our research community./

/2. organizers of STS conferences make the budget and costs of all 
future STS conferences and their respective associations transparent./

*Read and share our petition on charge.org where we list the 
environmental and social justice commitments at stake:*
