Mission Statement
The mission statement of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee at the School of Nursing is to promote diversity, equity and inclusion among faculty, staff and students through collaboration with the school’s administration, the Health Sciences Diversity Equity and Inclusion Office and the University Office of Diversity Equity and Inclusion. The Committee commits to addressing health inequities in diverse populations by providing information about resources, initiatives and educational opportunities for students, faculty and staff that support development of cultural humility and cultural sensitivity in nursing practice.
Community Engagement and Partnerships
The mission of the Community Engagement and Partnerships (CEP) is to increase the School of Nursing’s outreach to our community by forging strong partnerships to meet the healthcare needs of our community.
Cultural Humility
Cultural humility requires respect, empathy, and critical self-reflection both within oneself and when interacting with others.
Improving Cultural Sensitivity
We all have work that can be done to improve our cultural sensitivity and awareness of other cultures and experiences. These resources provide specific information for faculty, staff and students.
Addressing Health Inequities: Social Justice
These resources will help you learn more about health inequities in marginalized communities, and what research is being done to combat this issue.
Educational Opportunities
The University of Pittsburgh Office of Diversity and Inclusion offers a packed schedule of events throughout the year. More information is available at calendar.pitt.edu.
