Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) at UMass
Science is for everyone. UMass and OEB are actively working to make our community more inclusive, but this requires active involvement from all of us. It is important that we as scientists educate ourselves, our mentees, and our students about racism in the US, in STEM, and in our community. We encourage all OEB students to explore the resources below.
UMass has an Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, which offers many resources about antiracism, racial trauma, the university’s Diversity Plan, and other programs. OEB is working towards setting up an OEB JEDI Fellow, designed to support a senior OEB student to pursue anti-racism and social justice work within OEB. The IDGP DEI Committee hosts regular meetings and opportunities to work towards our JEDI goals.
In addition to the Office of DEI webpage, please explore:
