INFORMS Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Ambassadors (DEI) Program
The INFORMS Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Ambassadors Program will bring together groups of academic and practitioner members, graduate and undergraduate students, post-docs, and staff who will individually and/or collectively work on initiatives to foster a diverse, equitable, and inclusive INFORMS community. The program is intended to provide a platform for our members to engage in DEI initiatives in a variety of areas including workplace practices, teaching, and research, and leverage our capacities as individuals (practitioners, researchers, educators, students, and staff) to contribute to improving diversity, equity, and inclusion among the broader INFORMS community. Up to 20 projects will be funded.
Help INFORMS spread the message of diversity, equity, and inclusion
The INFORMS Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Ambassadors Program provides a platform to unite groups of academic and practitioner members, graduate and undergraduate students, postdocs, and staff to work individually or collaborate on initiatives to foster a diverse, equitable, and inclusive INFORMS community. In support of this effort, the DEI committee is currently awarding small grants (up to $2,500) for work that helps support this effort.
