N2 - We report the proceedings of the Diversity and Inclusion panel session at the international stability and systems engineering international IFAC conference held in Kosovo in 2022. This session brought together contributions from a range of disciplines and sectors to explore new avenues of research and practice for the IFAC Diversity and Inclusions initiatives. The session arose from a special proposed session which emphasised the social effects of control and automation systems and applications, especially their tendency to exclude and marginalise, exacerbating challenges of access to technology. The effects, overall, contribute to potential international instability and the panel raised challenges and opportunities for technologists, engineers and scientists. The following paper sets out the main contributions to the panel which was chaired by Larry Stapleton and includes contributors from the United Nations Development Programme, higher education and industry.
