This project is focused on building a diverse scientific workforce inclusive of underrepresented minorities by coordinating and integrating the efforts of professional scientific societies. The Alliance of Scientific Societies for the Development of the Next Generation of Scientists will draw upon insights and principles from the field of social science to build a Community of Practice by unifying and integrating the established effective practices for inclusion and diversity within a large group of national and international scientific societies based in the US. The goals of this Alliance are to create innovative, effective and strategic plans across organizations to offer members of minorities the opportunity to participate in the scientific enterprise, and to establish robust programs for the recruitment and retention of a diverse scientific workforce. A set of best practices and evaluation metrics will be developed and made available to the scientific community by a variety of mechanisms including conferences, workshops and on-line databases.Findings from the social sciences (drawing upon research in communities of practice, social cognitive career theory, identity formation, and cultural capital) provide insights into how underrepresented minority scientists develop, make choices, and meet challenges. This project will bring together the Minority Affairs and Diversity Committees of participating scientific societies along with social science professionals and other stakeholders to integrate their knowledge and experience to create and disseminate a unified database of diversity programs, a standard reference set of evaluation metrics, and create a context in which to share resources, best practices, and program outcomes to broaden participation of underrepresented minorities in the scientific enterprise.

该项目的重点是通过协调和整合专业科学社会的努力来建立包括代表性不足的少数民族的多样化的科学劳动力。科学社会的发展下一代科学家联盟将借鉴社会科学领域的洞察力和原则，通过统一和整合在美国大批国有和国际科学社会中的既定有效实践，以建立实践社区。这个联盟的目标是在组织之间制定创新，有效和战略计划，以为少数民族成员提供参与科学企业的机会，并为招募和保留多样化的科学劳动力建立强大的计划。将通过包括会议，研讨会和在线数据库在内的多种机制来开发并为科学界开发一系列最佳实践和评估指标（来自社会科学的调查（借鉴了实践，社会认知职业理论，认同形成和文化资本的社区社区中的研究），从而使洞察力挑战次要的科学家，并挑战了如何挑战科学家的选择，从而使科学的挑战和挑战。该项目将汇集参与科学社会的少数群体事务和多样性委员会以及社会科学专业人士和其他利益相关者，以整合其知识和经验，以创建和传播一个统一的多样性计划数据库，标准的评估指标集合集合，并创建一种共享资源，最佳实践和计划的范围，以遍及较少的参与，以宽广的参与范围，以宽广的参与为生。
