In 2020, OIED assessed the extent to which Brown has met the goals of its Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan — both at the University and departmental levels — through a series of evaluative steps. This assessment describes the process OIED conducted to understand the kind of DIAP-related initiatives that are occurring in academic and administrative departments. There are three components that comprise the formative assessment:
Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP)
DIAP Formative Assessment Report
Examines what proportion of goals were achieved in academic and administrative departments by reviewing DDIAPs
Establishes a greater understanding of the kinds of actions departments are pursuing, their intended outcomes, and the constituent and identity groups that were supported by the actions
A status update on the University-level actions listed in Appendix A of the 2016 DIAP
