European countries resist US push to scrap diversity and inclusion initiatives U.S. government efforts to eliminate diversity initiatives are not going down well on the European continent.

โ€œDiversity and inclusion are not just buzzwords, but the foundations of a strong and dynamic society,โ€

Proud to be a European scientist and vocal champion of #DEI now and always.
