The University of South Florida will organize and support a two-day conference for representatives of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs in ocean sciences who will map the landscape of programs and opportunities designed to encourage underrepresented students to pursue ocean STEM careers. A primary goal is to identify existing programs in this space, what audience(s) they reach, and where the gaps or connection points are between programs. A secondary goal of the workshop is to identify ways to provide increased access to at-sea training and experiences, as well as shoreside experiences, especially at the undergraduate level where opportunities are lacking. This conference will support the development of new long-term collaborations focused on supporting the engagement of under-represented students in ocean sciences. The workshop will seek to mitigate barriers to advancement of under-represented students in ocean sciences and to identify pathways that support student advancement in ocean science careers. The results of the workshop will be disseminated in a report, and the PI will seek to publish an information item about the workshop results in a major ocean science journal. The collaborative plan that emerges from it will aid all DE&I programs in ocean science. The workshop report will help existing and new programs, institutions, and individuals interested in advancing DE&I in ocean sciences by identifying best practices, gaps and opportunities, and potential collaborators.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

南佛罗里达大学将为海洋科学多样性、公平和包容性 (DEI) 项目的代表组织和支持为期两天的会议，他们将绘制旨在鼓励代表性不足的学生从事海洋 STEM 职业的项目和机会的蓝图。主要目标是确定该领域的现有项目、它们覆盖的受众以及项目之间的差距或连接点。 研讨会的第二个目标是确定如何提供更多获得海上培训和经验以及岸上经验的机会，特别是在缺乏机会的本科阶段。这次会议将支持发展新的长期合作，重点是支持代表性不足的学生参与海洋科学。该研讨会将寻求减少海洋科学领域代表性不足的学生进步的障碍，并确定支持学生在海洋科学职业生涯中进步的途径。研讨会的结果将在一份报告中传播，PI 将寻求在主要海洋科学期刊上发表有关研讨会结果的信息。由此产生的合作计划将有助于海洋科学领域的所有 DE&I 项目。研讨会报告将通过确定最佳实践、差距和机会以及潜在合作者，帮助有兴趣推进海洋科学 DE&I 的现有和新项目、机构和个人。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
