Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
An organization is only as good as its culture—and building that culture is the role of every employee. We can help make UC ANR a true multicultural and inclusive institution by examining and changing the perceptual, institutional and psychological processes that impact the ways people interact with each other - including our own individual complicity in racist and exclusionary systems. Many other resources and tools are found on the Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion page.
