The ISCr-Manizales 2023 Organizing Committee fully supports and promotes gender equality in accordance with the IUCr policy stated in https://www.iucr.org/iucr/principles-and-policies/gender-balance. We will ensure gender equality in the Organizing Committee, among the instructors and participants, and pay special attention to the gender balance in evaluating bursary applications. In accordance with IUCr policy, the gender statistics of the school can be obtained after the school by contacting the Chair of the ISCr-Manizales 2023 Organizing Committee. Further information can be found on the website of IUCr’s Gender Equity and Diversity Committee GEDC (https://www.iucr.org/iucr/governance/advisory-committees/gedc).
