NASA published its 2023 Equity Action Plan Wednesday, which outlines key accomplishments in increasing equity across the agency, and new commitments to continue removing inequitable barriers and challenges facing underserved communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt NASA, we are committed to advancing equity to ensure our work benefits all humanity,\u201d said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson. \u201cThe Equity Action plan deepens our long-term commitment to recognize and overcome systemic barriers that limit opportunity in underserved and underrepresented communities. This year, NASA has identified STEM education as an area to engage and inspire the diverse talent of our future leaders. We are inviting the next generation, the Artemis Generation, to take on the daring missions of the future in the cosmos, and here on Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n

The equity plan is part of the Biden-Harris Administration\u2019s whole-of-government approach to advancing equity. It supports the President\u2019s Executive Order 14091 on \u201cFurther Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government.\u201d<\/p>\n
