Abstract:

Ensuring increased gender diversity and equality across our organizations requires a strong commitment from the top. This panel discussion explores the steps taken to date by JPL and Campus leadership to recruit, retain and promote a diverse talent pool, summarizes the major accomplishments over the last decade, and highlights the next steps. A Q&A session will follow.

This lecture is cosponsored by the Women Mentoring Women Program (Caltech Center of Diversity), the Caltech Division of Engineering and Applied Science, JPL, the JPL Advisory Council for Women (ACW) and the Keck Institute for Space Studies.
