The Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center recognizes that diverse communities are stronger, more resilient communities, both in nature and human society. Our organization has a critical responsibility to provide a welcoming, accessible, and educational space for all members of the diverse communities we serve. We are committed to cultivating an inclusive environment to conduct, share, and champion diversity and equity in marine science for all staff, visitors, and our global community. We are also deeply committed to do more to listen, learn from, and uplift the communities in our midst that suffer disproportionately from systemic racism, structural inequality, and environmental injustice.
