SOUTH CENTRAL CASC

At the South Central Climate Adaptation Science Center (CASC), we strongly support diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts that are key to progressing society forward and overcoming community-level challenges, such as climate change. Previous research has shown that DEI efforts are necessary for healthy workplaces and building community resilience. Diverse and inclusive workforces often result in higher productivity and creativity, which are necessary for assisting our stakeholders in their climate adaptation efforts. We cannot work towards effective and innovative climate adaptation in the evolving climate crisis without embracing the experiences and knowledge from all peoples. At the South Central CASC, we are committed to ensuring that our workforce and the science community represent the diversity of our Nation... At the South Central CASC, we encourage all of our employees to take part in diversity trainings offered through their institution and become allies and advocates..
