Highlights scientific and professional communities as agents of change for more inclusive STEM communities and leadership.

This volume focuses on organizations that nurture diversity and inclusivity, as well as their intentional efforts toward fostering inclusive environments and creating lasting cultural change. Each chapter features a case study spearheaded by a team of authors chronicling one aspect of a scientific community in their efforts to become a more inclusive and diverse collective. These case studies facilitate discussion and reflection, as well as provide powerful tools to reveal process and implementation details that can help societies take action towards more inclusive STEM communities.
