Equity, Diversity, + Inclusion
At the Harvard Data Science Initiative (HDSI), we actively seek, celebrate, and welcome peo - ple with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and identities. The HDSI is committed to offering opportunities and programs to everyone in order to help individuals succeed and advance the field of data science. We acknowledge that every person’s ability to achieve professional advancement, fulfillment, and security is impacted by factors like one’s race, gender, health, and economic status. These social inequities prevent a significant portion of the world’s population from accessing and pursuing education or gainful employment. We at the HDSI actively think about ways in which we can inspire meaningful social change and emphasize there is strength in diversity. In adherence to Harvard University’s diversity and inclusion values, we will continue to advocate for an increase in diversity and sense of belonging among everyone in our community and beyond—regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, immigration status, nationality, so- cioeconomic status, or disability.
