Abstract
Our mission of educating responsible engineers requires a diverse and inclusive community where sustainability is a shared commitment. This workshop engaged participants in considering what it means to be a sustainable community and how this interacts with Sustainable Development Goals related to addressing inequity of access and experience. Specifically, we considered the barriers that people face to both being a part of the SEFI community and participating in SEFI events, and the potential impacts of these barriers on the sustainability of the community, and thus the future of engineering education. Based on a 2023 SEFI@Work event and survey data collected from SEFI members, this workshop engaged participants in reviewing initiatives, identifying priorities, and establishing recommendations for inclusion at SEFI events. We encouraged people from across the SEFI community, both those that see their concerns reflected in current inclusion activities and those who do not, to attend this workshop.
