What does getting involved mean?

The ENVS Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) action group is divided into four different working groups to cover a variety of topics and goals for making our department a space that welcomes and supports people from marginalized groups. When you sign up to join the JEDI action group, you can choose one or more of these working groups, described below, depending on your interests. Working groups meet weekly or every two weeks and projects may involve an hour or two of work outside of meetings per week. If you don't have time to commit to a working group, we often host Community in Action events and other opportunities to help out with one-time needs.

Who can join the JEDI Committee?

Membership is open to any Environmental Studies department faculty, staff, researchers, and students!
