		when their perspective is valued, and when their work is recognized.
		Better technical and social solutions can be found through wide participation.
		We are therefore dedicated to expanding our community in a welcoming and inclusive way,
		with particular focus on increased participation by people who identify with groups that are underrepresented in STEM.

Do you want to say STEM or scientific open source? I know this is a nit but I think it's better to be explicit about our focus than be too general.

I think this was meant to say that we'd like to see more participation from people underrepresented in STEM, since we rely on those fields to provide contributors. The Scientific Open Source community is tiny, so it is likely not to be well represented along various axes.

More importantly, however, the idea is for you and Hannah to own this page and edit it to your heart's content.

@melissawm Maybe "underrepresented in STEM and the open source scientific Python community" or "underrepresented in STEM and the open source scientific Python community, in particular". I don't have a strong opinion and am happy to use whatever you prefer.

I checked through the build artifact and think this generally looks good. I realize much of this is scaffolding and a lot will change in the process of fleshing things out, but there were a few high-level things that I think are important that this addition gets right:

Making the DEI a top-level page (i.e. a navbar tab) so that it is accessible from anywhere on the site
Linking to cross-community DEI resources. Obviously more can/will/should be added as they become available, but having everything collated and easily accessible is a big plus.

I think the sentiment here is spot on, but this reads strangely to me. I don't really have any concrete ideas how to prove the wording, but maybe something like:

Suggested change

	Healthy communities are built when everyone's voice is heard,
	when their perspective is valued, and when their work is recognized.
	Healthy communities are built on the foundations of equitable access and inclusivity.
	A community can only flourish when everyone's voice is heard,
	when their perspective is valued, and when their work is recognized.

I think is that to me it reads a little passive? Like the dominant majority needs to listen, recognize, value - which is true, but is also missing something like "empower folks to act", "take action to correct injustice" - dunno, but something more active that better centers the folks doing the work.

This would be a great place to link to any/all discussion forums etc. For example, something like: Want to learn more or share your ideas? Join the discussion at <link(s)>

The DEI category on the discuss forum would be an obvious candidate (if it ends up being decided to use that as a public forum). Whatever the platform ends up being - this seems like a great place to link to it!

		> We are happy to announce the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative has [awarded a grant](https://chanzuckerberg.com/newsroom/czi-awards-16-million-for-foundational-open-source-software-tools-essential-to-biomedicine/) to support the onboarding, inclusion, and retention of people from historically marginalized groups on scientific Python projects, and to structurally improve the community dynamics for NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib, and Pandas.

		> As a part of [CZI's Essential Open Source Software for Science program](https://chanzuckerberg.com/eoss/), this [Diversity & Inclusion supplemental grant](https://cziscience.medium.com/advancing-diversity-and-inclusion-in-scientific-open-source-eaabe6a5488b) will support the creation of dedicated Contributor Experience Lead positions to identify, document, and implement practices to foster inclusive open-source communities. This project will be led by Melissa Mendonça (NumPy), with additional mentorship and guidance provided by Ralf Gommers (NumPy, SciPy), Hannah Aizenman and Thomas Caswell (Matplotlib), Matt Haberland (SciPy), and Joris Van den Bossche (Pandas).

		> This is an ambitious project aiming to discover and implement activities that should structurally improve the community dynamics of our projects. By establishing these new cross-project roles, we hope to introduce a new collaboration model to the Scientific Python communities, allowing community-building work within the ecosystem to be done more efficiently and with greater outcomes. We also expect to develop a clearer picture of what works and what doesn't in our projects to engage and retain new contributors, especially from historically underrepresented groups. Finally, we plan on producing detailed reports on the actions executed, explaining how they have impacted our projects in terms of representation and interaction with our communities.

		> The two-year project is expected to start by November 2021, and we are excited to see the results from this work! [You can read the full proposal here](https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Advancing_an_inclusive_culture_in_the_scientific_Python_ecosystem/16548063).

Just a nit, but the several literal blocks renders kind of strangely in the html: https://208-142606827-gh.circle-artifacts.com/0/public/dei/inclusive_culture_2021_grant.html

It seems more like a collection of testimonals or something instead of a single quoted document

How about something like this:

We'd need to run this by numpy.org too, since they use quotes (although I think the dark background quotes look wonky there too).

I incorporated the content of this PR in #92 and #93. The text still needs work, but we can fix it before deploying the new site. I will close this PR in a day or two, if no one objects.
