Executive Steering Board
This ADVANCE project leverages the expertise and resources of its Executive Steering Committee, a partnership of 12 academic organizations and professional societies, and strategically draws on the knowledge and insights gained from, but not limited to, prior NSF-ADVANCE projects. Each of the following partners bring significant track records of commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion in STEM, and will be actively engaged in the implementation of the project’s activities. They will also disseminate the policies, best practices, case studies, research, and other successes that result from this project.
