The International Society for Behavioral Ecology (ISBE) and the ISBE2026 Organizing Committee are firmly committed to promoting equity, diversity, and inclusion, and to ensuring equal opportunities for all participants. We are dedicated to fostering a respectful, inclusive, and harassment-free environment where every individual is treated with dignity, fairness, and respect.
ISBE2026 will operate in accordance with ISBE’s recently updated Principles of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (here) which aim to create a safe, welcoming, and supportive space for all attendees—regardless of gender, race, ethnic origin, religion, age, marital status, sexual orientation, pregnancy, parenthood, or disability.
If you experience or witness any conduct that you believe violates these principles, we encourage you to contact a member of the Organizing Committee. All reports will be taken seriously and handled with confidentiality and care. Where appropriate, concerns may be referred to the ISBE Executive Committee for further action.
Together, we are committed to making ISBE2026 a positive, respectful, and inclusive experience for everyone.
