IEEE SA Board of Governors/ Strategic and Emerging Standards Committee/ Inclusive Language Working Group Meeting

You are invited to attend the kick-off meeting of a new IEEE Standards Association (IEEE SA) project: IEEE P3400™, Standard for Use of Inclusive Language in Technical Terminology and Communications. The scope of this project is below.

The Working Group will be organized and launched at this hybrid kick-off meeting and is expected to hold regular virtual meetings and occasional hybrid meetings. Participation is free and open to all individuals with an interest in developing this standard. The Working Group is seeking diverse perspectives and global participation and invites you to participate yourself and to forward this announcement to others who many have an interest.

WHY GET INVOLVED

It also includes recommendations on how to replace such deprecated technical terminology and provides examples of alternatives.
