This document and corresponding timeline are part of the Institute’s overall blueprint for incorporating inclusion, diversity, equity, and access (IDEA) into an institutional transformation that endows experimental art-makers with a global worldview.
The plan endeavors to provide a frame with corresponding strategies for IDEA work to happen across the Institute. All strategies are guided by input from the Institute’s senior leadership and shared-governance bodies, especially the IDEA Committee, as well as individual schools and program leaders.
The Office of Institutional Effectiveness will create a program to collect data in order for us to assess our ongoing progress. While the needs analysis and implementation will be distributed across the Institute, the IDEA Office will be responsible for central support and coordination. Said another way, it will take an effort from every single member of the community for us to be able to realize meaningful progress in IDEA work—this isn’t something that can happen without each of us. Part of the IDEA Office’s role will be to help each member of the community understand how they can contribute.
