Abstract (short summary)
Equitable Letters in Space Physics (ELSP) is an organisation that aims to encourage merit-based recommendations and nominations in the space physics community by providing resources and reviews. If you are writing a recommendation letter for someone you know professionally, you can send it to us and we will send it out to our reviewers. They will provide recommendations on how you can make your letter more equitable and less biased, using a combination of the techniques and resources described on our site, with the aim to make unbiased recommendation letters more accessible to all. If you are interested in being a reviewer, please let us know: we're a relatively young initiative and we're keen to have many diverse voices aboard as soon as we can.
Plain text (extended) Summary
Equitable Letters in Space Physics (ELSP) is an organisation with the mission of encouraging merit-based recommendations and nominations in the space physics community by providing resources and reviews. We are currently looking for volunteers to become reviewers. Our website provides resources that helps submitters to write more equitable letters of recommendations. Anyone can submit a letter to ELSP for review to help make it more equitable and remove bias; we hope to open for reviews shortly. Our code of conduct is based on the Contributor Covenant 2.0, you can help contribute to the project by visiting our website, and we will have annual elections for the board of directors.
