The U.S. National Science Foundation has released a new Dear Colleague Letter (DCL): Strengthening the Evidence Base Related to Broadening the Participation of LGBTQI+ Individuals in STEM.
This DCL aims to advance NSF’s Vision of a "nation that leads the world in science and engineering research and innovation, to the benefit of all, without barriers to participation", which is closely aligned with the NSF 2022-2026 Strategic Plan and the Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) Data Action Plan. NSF is fully committed to the development of a future-focused science and engineering workforce that draws on the talents of all Americans, including those in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex (LGBTQI+) communities.
Read the full DCL on the NSF website.
