The purpose of the NIH-Wide Strategic Plan for DEIA is to articulate NIH’s vision for embracing, integrating, and strengthening DEIA across all NIH activities to achieve the NIH mission. The Strategic Plan will capture activities that NIH will undertake to meet the vision of the Strategic Plan, and will be organized around accomplishments, needs, opportunities, and challenges in addressing DEIA in the NIH internal and extramural workforce, its structure and culture, and the research it supports. NIH has implemented a range of other initiatives to advance DEIA. Among them, the UNITE initiative (https:// www.nih.gov/ending-structural-racism/ unite) was established in 2021 to identify and address structural racism within the NIH-supported and the greater scientific community. Please note that an RFI on the Draft 2022–2026 Chief Officer for Scientific Workforce Diversity (COSWD) Strategic Plan (https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/ notice-files/NOT-OD-22-054.html) was released on January 12, 2022 and, therefore, is open for public comment at the same time as this Framework for the NIH-Wide Strategic Plan for DEIA. You are encouraged to respond to both. The NIH-Wide Strategic Plan for DEIA is being developed in part as a response to Report 116–450 on H.R. 7614: Diversity at NIH Working Group and Strategic Plan, and is responsive to Executive Order 14035 and the Government-Wide Strategic Plan to Advance Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility in the Federal Workforce (https:// www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/ presidential-actions/2021/06/25/ executive-order-on-diversity-equityinclusion-and-accessibility-in-thefederal-workforce/). The NIH-Wide Strategic Plan for DEIA will highlight NIH’s ongoing and future efforts to foster DEIA within the biomedical and health research enterprise. The Framework for the NIHWide Strategic Plan for DEIA, below, articulates NIH’s priorities in three key areas (Objectives): Organizational practices to center and prioritize DEIA within the workforce; broad efforts to manage and sustain DEIA through structural and cultural change; and research to promote both workforce and health equity. These Objectives apply across NIH. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:29 Feb 10, 2022 Jkt 256001 Objective 1: Implement Organizational Practices To Center and Prioritize DEIA in the Workforce • NIH Workforce • Workforce at Institutions Supported by NIH Funding Objective 2: Grow and Sustain DEIA Through Structural and Cultural Change • • • • Stewardship Partnerships and Engagements Accountability and Confidence Management and Operations Objective 3: Advance DEIA Through Research • Workforce Research • Health Research The NIH seeks comments on any or all of NIH’s priorities across the three key areas (Objectives) articulated in the framework, including potential benefits, drawbacks or challenges, and other priority areas for consideration.
