Diversity Equity & Inclusion Caucus

The PSA Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Caucus was founded in November, 2006 at the PSA meeting in Vancouver, BC. It was formerly known as the Women's Caucus. The goals are to support marginalized scholars entering the philosophy of science, to provide an opportunity for networking among marginalized folks, and to raise the visibility of marginalized scholars in the field. The caucus is an umbrella organization supporting affinity groups (details below!) intended to achieve these goals for different groups of scholars. The Caucus is authorized by the PSA Governing Board and is accountable to that Board. Its co-chairs act as a resource to the organization on questions that are pertinent to diversity, equity, and inclusion in the profession as well as within the PSA itself. For more information, please see the Caucus' Bylaws.

PSA DEI Caucus List of Affinity Groups:

If you'd like to join a group to see what it's about, or have a proposal for a new group, please email the chairs/contact people listed. Groups are encouraged to discuss with each other and their memberships to clarify their mission and reshape their scope, including splitting into two groups or combining with another similarly themed group. If new group ideas come to you during this period, we are always open to new proposals. We look forward to seeing what we can create together!
