The Equity & Inclusion (E&I) committee was established in March 2018 to focus on fostering an inclusive collaboration environment in which everyone can thrive. The committee’s scope of work has been outlined here. As a result, LZ has adopted a Code of Conduct and established 2 ombudspersons and there will be a plenary session at every bi-annual in-person collaboration meeting focused on E&I.

Current E&I Committee chair: Rachel Mannino

Feel free to contact the current committee chair or the LZ Spokersperson with questions or suggestions regarding E&I in LZ.
