摘要 过去和现在的制度文化导致了白人在地球科学领域的代表性过高。承认这段历史并从中学习对于建立一个具有前瞻性、创新性和反种族主义的地球科学界至关重要。为了改变机构文化并解决不平等和排斥问题，许多机构的第一步是建立一个专注于多样性、公平和包容性的委员会或工作组。在这份手稿中，我们反思了 2020 年在哥伦比亚大学拉蒙特-多尔蒂地球观测站共同主持多样性、公平和包容性工作组的成功、挑战和经验。我们组织了一项透明的、社区驱动的工作，持续了六个月，并对结果有明确的期望。我们确定了制度变革的优先事项、目标和建议，范围从大规模结构变革到个人行动。具体来说，我们发现（1）考虑权力动态，（2）在语气和内容之间取得平衡，（3）解决财务约束如何与机构价值观相交叉，以及（4）尊重数据的权力和政治对我们的工作至关重要。在此，我们提出了创建强有力且富有远见的制度变革的路线图。此外，我们还讨论了我们在整个过程中遇到的障碍、障碍和机遇，以便提供其他机构可以用来满足其自身需求的策略，并促进整个地球科学的正义。此外，我们还讨论了这种结构和经验教训如何广泛适用于各种规模的学术机构以及地球科学之外的学术机构。
Abstract Past and current institutional cultures have contributed to the overrepresentation of white men in geoscience. Acknowledging and learning from this history is critical to building a forward-looking, innovative, and anti-racist geoscience community. To change institutional culture and address inequities and exclusion, the first step for many institutions is to establish a committee or task force focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion. In this manuscript, we reflect on our successes, challenges, and experiences co-chairing the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Task Force at Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in 2020. We organized a transparent, community-driven effort that lasted for six months with clear expectations around outcomes. We identified priorities, goals, and recommendations for institutional change, ranging from large-scale structural changes to individual actions. Specifically, we found that (1) considering power dynamics, (2) striking a balance between tone and content, (3) addressing how financial constraints intersect with institutional values, and (4) respecting the power and politics of data were critical to our work. Here we present a roadmap for creating robust and visionary institutional change. In addition, we discuss the obstacles, barriers, and opportunities we encountered through our process, in order to provide strategies that other institutions can use to address their own needs, and to advance justice in geoscience as a whole. Moreover, we discuss how this structure and lessons learned are broadly applicable to academic institutions at various scales and beyond geoscience.
