Diversity Innovation Grants
The Diversity Innovation Grant (DIG) program began in 2012. In the past 10 years, awardees have represented a wide range of undertakings within the Johns Hopkins Community.
DIG awardees have developed programs and implemented projects with expansive impacts. From all-gender restrooms to speaker series, DIG awardees bring programs and projects that bring diverse perspectives to issues in higher education and increase inclusivity in our community.
