Abstract: This report is presented by the Subcommittee for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to the Advisory Committee of the National Science Foundation’s Office of Polar Programs (OPP). The subcommittee was commissioned in September 2020 by then OPP Director Kelly Falkner with a charter to 1) characterize the current state of the diversity of the NSF-sponsored polar research community; 2) examine existing efforts by NSF and others to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI); and 3) identify and recommend the most promising strategies for OPP to significantly enhance DEI in the polar sciences. The report presents our recommendations along with findings from research on DEI programs at NSF and other agencies.
