## Fall 2020 - Spring 2025

In the fall of 2020, Belonging at Yale was launched as a three- to five-year initiative based on recommendations on diversity, inclusion, and belonging by a group of faculty and administrators. The five-year Belonging at Yale Action Plan (2020-2025) was the result and [concluded at the end of the 2024-2025 academic year.](https://president.yale.edu/posts/2025-06-26-belonging-at-yale-five-year-action-plan-2020-2025)

The action plan included six broad areas: scholarship, research, practice, and teaching; diversity of the Yale community; equitable process, procedure, and responses; professional and personal development of inclusive practice; acknowledgment, recognition, and respect; and communication, transparency, and accountability. The plan addressed the interests and needs of staff, faculty, students, and alumni.

Every school and administrative division participated in Belonging at Yale through unit-specific activities. The collaborative effort of the whole community is reflected in past annual reports.
