About the series
The National Academies will offer a presentation on a new initiative: The Action Collaborative on Transforming Trajectories for Women of Color in Tech. This effort will bring together more than 35 organizations across higher education, national labs, and government agencies to work toward targeted, collective action, guided by an intersectional approach. Sponsoring members of the Action Collaborative will work over the next 4-years to transform pathways in tech education and careers with the aim of ensuring sustained resources and opportunities for women who identify as African American, Black, Hispanic, Latina, American Indian, Asian American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, or other Pacific Islander. This Action Collaborative is guided by the expert findings and recommendations put forth by the 2022 National Academies consensus report Transforming Trajectories for Women of Color in Tech.
