Overview
In 2013–14, UDAR created its first strategic plan for diversity, equity and inclusion as part of broader campus planning following the Haas Jr. Fund gift to UC Berkeley, which helped establish the Division of Equity & Inclusion (E&I). In 2020, amid growing national and campus attention to social and racial injustice, the plan was reviewed with a renewed focus on diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging and justice (DEIBJ).
Vice Chancellor, Julie Hooper appointed a DEIBJ Project Team (PT) to guide the development of a new DEIBJ strategic plan. The plan would address how to create an inclusive environment respecting all backgrounds and experiences. UDAR convened three Working Groups (WGs) who provided recommendations in three focus areas:
-
Learning and Inclusive Community
-
Leadership Development and Career Pathways
-
Fundraising Programs and Alumni Engagement
As a result, UDAR unveiled its DEIBJ Strategic Framework in October 2022. The framework aligns with the campus principles of community and includes a strong statement of commitment to DEIBJ principles.
