As part of several efforts to improve inclusivity in the information theory community, we ask that you fill out this demographics and inclusion survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ITSoc. This should take about 5 to 15 minutes.

Why? The Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Committee of the IEEE Information Theory Society (ITSoc) is very interested in knowing how we can improve in ways that make everyone feel welcome and included. We are also collecting demographic information (following NCWIT and CRA-W) so that we can (a) understand where we stand as a community, and (b) identify areas in which the society can improve and develop strategies to address challenges that exist.

We value your time and your candor in responding to this survey. Thank you very much.
