Office of Equity and Inclusion
UMBC Inclusion Council
We are grateful for the work of the Inclusion Council. For more than a year, ten working groups, made made up of over 150 students, faculty, staff, and alumni compiled this series of recommendations on how the University can advance its mission of social justice.
With guidance from the council, the Office of Equity and Inclusion compiled the findings into the The 2020-2021 Inclusion Council Recommendation Report. We are also making the full reports of each committee available
The recommendations in the report cover a broad range of topics related to our community including:
Alignment of Economic Decisions and Values
Bias, Microaggressions, Intersectionality, Engagement, Training and Education
Communications
Conflict Resolution and Restorative Practices
Curriculum
Faculty and Staff Diversity, Recruitment, Retention, and Belonging
