Within and beyond academia, debates around equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) have been gathering pace. We focus on EDI and geomorphology and address four main questions: (1) why does EDI matter for geomorphology?; (2) what are the barriers to greater EDI in geomorphology?; (3) how can we address these EDI barriers?; (4) can we ensure a resilient future for geomorphology by addressing EDI? At a time of critical environmental, social and economic transition, we contend that addressing EDI is essential for ensuring a resilient geomorphology, defined here as a discipline that is seen to be adapting to these changing external circumstances so that it remains relevant, vibrant and accessible to a wide cross‐section of society. Not doing so will limit the intellectual development of geomorphology, incur reputational risk for geomorphological groups and organizations like the British Society for Geomorphology, and ensure that the many potential benefits of geomorphology for science and society remain underutilized at best. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

平等,多样性,包容:确保地貌学的未来有弹性

在学术界内外,围绕平等,多样性和包容性(EDI)的辩论一直在加快。我们关注EDI和地貌学,并解决四个主要问题:(1)EDI为什么对地貌学很重要?(2)地貌学中增加EDI的障碍是什么?(3)如何解决这些EDI障碍?(4)通过解决EDI,我们是否可以确保地貌学有弹性的未来?在关键的环境,社会和经济转型时期,我们认为解决EDI对于确保弹性地貌至关重要,此处定义为一门学科,被视为正在适应这些不断变化的外部环境,因此它仍然具有相关性,活力和可访问性覆盖整个社会。不这样做会限制地貌学的智力发展,会给诸如英国地貌学会等地貌团体和组织带来声誉风险,并确保地貌学对科学和社会的许多潜在利益至多没有得到充分利用。分级为4 +©2020 John Wiley&Sons,Ltd.
