COLLECTION OF DEMOGRAPHIC DATA

The EAHMH will collect demographic information. We aim to understand the composition of those submitting proposals, our members and attendees to the conference. But we also want to identify under-served and under-represented communities, and aim to formulate strategies to increase representation across communities. Aggregate, anonymized demographic data can be communicated to our members and the public.

However, we want to ensure that the data are gathered safely. We are committed to collecting information in a manner that is voluntary, limited to and in the service of our purposes. The information will be kept confidential, and any reporting of it will be in the aggregate and anonymized. The Program Committee will take into consideration certain demographics in making decisions about the constellation of the program, to achieve balance and diversity in our program.
