Particle physics facilities have the potential to have a significant impact on their surrounding local communities. The Snowmass Community Engagement Frontier Topical Group on Societal and Environmental impacts is hosting a zoom workshop on local community impacts on Nov 15 from 10am to 1pm CT (https://indico.fnal.gov/event/51648/). This workshop is focused on discussing examples and lessons learned from impactful work being performed by particle physics laboratories to partner with local communities and regional Tribal communities and other underserved populations.
We are hopeful this workshop will inspire others to find innovative ways to work alongside the communities in which they are located including underrepresented groups. We invite Snowmass participants to join us in learning how we can foster relationships with our local communities and underrepresented groups to create innovative approaches to community engagement and develop recommendations for the field in a contributed Snowmass paper.
