To gain a baseline understanding of DEI challenges and perceptions, an online survey was conducted in March 2024. 208 responses were collected and analyzed alongside feedback from interactive DEI sessions at the annual congress (2024, San Lorenzo de El Escorial, Spain). The results indicated a predominantly female respondent group (66%), an overrepresentation of experienced pathologists (58.7%), and limited ethnic diversity, with 85.6% identifying as White/Caucasian. Key DEI challenges included workplace discrimination, financial disparities in residency programs, language barriers for non-native English speakers, limited neurodiversity accommodations, and a lack of LGBTQIA+ inclusivity. In response, the DEITF has developed a comprehensive set of recommendations outlining actionable strategies for ESVP/ECVP, training centers, and event organizers. These efforts focus on gender identity recognition, neurodiversity and accessibility, and residency experience improvements. Additionally, the DEITF is committed to implementing regular DEI-focused education, workshops, and policy recommendations. Future goals include the development of mentorship programs, the implementation of recommendations for equitable accessibility to professional opportunities, the establishment of DEI-focused scholarships, the integration of inclusive curricula, and advocacy for structural changes within training centers and professional societies to promote standardized policies supporting underrepresented groups.
