Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at GRI
Consistent with W&M’s university values and our own diversity, equity, and inclusion plan, we consciously build and support a collection of teams that include people from a wide range of national, disciplinary, methodological, ideological, gender, racial, and ethnic backgrounds.
GRI's Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Plan
Implementation of our DEI plan is a Director's Initiative, and we invite you to learn more about our efforts in this area by reading our plan.
GRI's DEI Committee
Our DEI plan is implemented by GRI's DEI Committee, which is made up of both staff and student representatives. The DEI Committee is currently chaired by Rebecca Latourell; you can email her with any questions or concerns at rmhalleran@wm.edu.
Fundraising Initiative: Post-Doctoral Fellowship for Academic Diversity
This key initiative tackles the dual challenge of improving diversity of both researchers and students who focus on global challenges. Researchers from underrepresented groups come to William & Mary for two or more years to mentor students. These scholars integrate their work with ongoing research projects at GRI or create their own research labs. Learn more about the program here.
