Seriously, if you care about diversity and you repeatedly organize your event in a place where people from 3rd world can't get a visa to, you're lying to yourself.

What's the country where the median person in the world has the easiest time getting a visa to attend a conference?

that is an excellent question, but generally speaking medium-poor countries with an appetite for foreign capital/tourism would be my guess. For example I think it's exceptionally easy to get to South Africa.

I've done SA tourist visa - sure the list is bad, but it's as bad as everywhere. The key part is that they don't actually care, as far as I can tell. But if you have stories how people got tourist visa denied, I'm more than ready to change my stance
