For our second method, we are doing a trial run of two-way remote participation.  For those people who are selected to attend, but are unable to be physically present, we will establish a two-way video link and chat room.  All remote participants will sign an agreement to ensure it is used ethically and respectfully.  We expect the exact implementation details to change as we approach the conference date.  While we wish we could offer this option to everyone who has expressed interest in the conference, we do not currently have the capacity to support it for all 100+ people that were not selected to participate.  After the conference, we will report on our experiences and issue recommendations, hopefully enabling future Inclusive Astronomy conferences and other meetings to reach a broader audience.  If you have any questions regarding two-way remote participation, please contact Laura Prichard (LOC Co-chair, lprichard@stsci.edu).
