In the Computing Sciences Area, we share the collective vision that Berkeley Lab’s inclusion, diversity, equity, and accountability (IDEA) principles are key enablers to accomplishing our Lab’s vision of bringing science solutions to the world, and are critical components of our Lab’s stewardship efforts. IDEA principles are inextricably linked to our values of team science, service, trust, innovation, and respect. IDEA produces high-performing teams, and drives meaningful impact and outcomes.”
CSA DEI Coordinators
The CSA DEI Coordinators group is composed of volunteers from across the Computing Sciences Area who are interested in extending and enhancing our diversity activities. This includes the area representatives to the Lab-wide DEI Chairs Council, as well as the leaders of the individual division DEI committees. In addition, anyone who is interested is welcome to join.
One of the primary roles of this group is to facilitate communication from the Lab DEI office and Chairs Council to the divisions and to share information from the divisions with the Lab-wide offices. We advocate for IDEA principles and promote DEI activity within the area and division, and network with others at Berkeley Lab who are passionate about DEI.
