Gender Values: Meeting the Challenge for STEM Gender Diversity

目前的项目“迎接STEM性别多样性挑战”将加强高等教育机构和联邦机构的合作能力，以招募和留住STEM学科的女性。 通过一项精心制定的协议，以组织变革理论为基础，将制定一个国家框架，并将其用作以下方面的战术蓝图：1）根据已证明的制度化和包容性水平，评估有利于家庭的政策和做法; 2）促进和实施灵活的工作场所环境，其精确程度是实现重大变革和持续影响所需的。 更广泛的意义和重要性：该项目将启动对机构政策，程序和流程的深入和普遍的调整，以确保所有STEM教师，特别是女性和有色人种，将在数量上等于或高于他们所选择的游泳池。

The current project, Meeting the Challenge for STEM Gender Diversity, will strengthen the capacity of higher education institutions and federal agencies to work collaboratively to recruit and retain women in the academic STEM disciplines. Through a carefully constructed protocol, grounded in organizational change theories, a national framework will be developed and utilized as a tactical blueprint for: 1) assessing family friendly policies and practices according to levels of demonstrated institutionalization and inclusivity, and 2) promoting and implementing a flexible workplace environment at the level of precision required for dramatic change and sustained impact. Broader significance and importance: This project will set in motion the deep and pervasive adjustments to institutional policies, procedures and processes that will ensure that all STEM faculty, particularly women and women of color, will be represented in numbers equal to or higher than parity with pools from which they are selected.
