Commitment. Passion. Engagement.
In spring 2006, Johns Hopkins Medicine launched an ambitious endeavor to recruit and retain the most talented people, to foster a culture in which everyone feels that their contributions are valued, and to provide better medical care through respect for patients’ backgrounds and beliefs. We call it the Diversity and Inclusion Initiative, and it’s well under way.
In recent years there have been numerous efforts to improve diversity at Hopkins. But those successes often occurred in single departments or divisions. We recognize that achieving success on a larger scale requires an institutional commitment, and that’s why we’ve undertaken this initiative.
We invite you to learn more about our efforts by exploring this site and watching our 14-minute diversity and inclusion video below. For ease of viewing online, the video has been divided into six segments:
- A Renewed Commitment (featured below ~ 3 min., 38 sec.)
- Creating a Better Institution (2 min., 16 sec.)
- We Need to Create Opportunities (1 min., 22 sec.)
- It’s in Our Hands (1 min., 51 sec.)
- Going Beyond Expectations (2 min., 19 sec.)
- Diversity and Inclusion Vision 2020 (2 min., 29 sec.)
