Just to mention that I am Spanish but I do not feel as an under represented minority, at least in UK. The minority ethnicities are very much focused in USA. If the aim is to promote this as a global initiative, maybe that question can be rewritten to cover more possibilities. I am just saying that so more people may tick the box accordingly :) Thank you for this initiative, as soon as I heard of it I joined it. Best
