At the University of Colorado School of Medicine Graduate Medical Education (GME), we value diversity, equity, and inclusion as fundamental principles that guide our actions and decisions. We are committed to creating an environment that fosters belonging where every member of our community feels valued, respected, and supported. We value the lived experiences that enhance our GME community. We strive to foster a culture of openness and understanding, where all individuals share their perspectives and experiences, and learn from each other in a welcoming space. In addition to being a moral imperative, our commitment to belonging is essential to achieving our academic mission of providing excellent patient care and advancing knowledge through education and research with an ultimate goal of health equity for the patients and communities we serve. We believe an inclusive environment is imperative to promote critical thinking and to support our students, residents, fellows and faculty as responsible and engaged global citizens.
