LGBT+ Inclusivity in Physics and Astronomy: A Best Practices Guide

Physics Education 2018-04-24 v1 Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics

Abstract

We present the second edition of a Best Practices Guide for academic departments and other institutions striving to create more inclusive environments for physicists and astronomers in the LGBT+ community. Our recommendations incorporate new research since the original, 2014 edition, and are designed for anyone who wishes to become aware of -- and help mitigate -- the extra burdens that face members of the LGBT+ community in the physical sciences.
