Greetings!
The Nonprofit Professionals Advisory Group has been retained by the
*National Council for Research on Women* to assist them in their search
for a *Director of Research for Institutional Diversity*.
*National Council for Research on Women:*
For 25 years, the National Council for Research on Women has helped
shape the future for women and girls. The Council is a network of 110
member research and policy centers and more than 2,000 top-level
researchers providing the information and research needed to foster more
equitable futures for women and girls. While women have made progress on
many fronts, much remains to be done. The Council’s network’s
evidence-based research provides hard data to inform new policy and
legislation that can make long-lasting differences in women and girl’s
lives. The Council’s research puts women’s needs, perspectives, and
solutions on the radar screen and make them part of the public debate.
The Council is undertaking a two-year project designed to address issues
of leadership, inclusion, and diversity in the fields of women’s
research and studies. Specifically the project will develop strategies to:
a) engage the Council and its network of 110 women’s research centers
and affiliated women’s studies programs in a self-reflective analysis of
their own diversity, record of inclusiveness, and the future of the field;
b) incorporate more women, especially younger women from historically
under-represented populations, (e.g. African-American, Chicana, and
native American backgrounds) into all levels within the fields of
women’s studies and research, and position them to become leaders within
the centers and the field generally; and
c) strengthen the centers as important sites for engaging women from
these historically under-represented populations in the field of women’s
studies as students, majors, researchers, faculty, and leaders.
*Challenges Facing the Director of Research for Institutional Diversity:*
The Council seeks a Director of Research for Institutional Diversity to
direct and manage this Ford Foundation-funded project -- Expanding
Inclusion and Diversity in Women’s Research and Studies Programs and
other responsibilities. The Director will report to the President and
serve as an active member of the Council’s senior management team.
Working closely with the President, the Director will take primary
responsibility for developing, managing, and implementing this new and
exciting project.
*Any assistance you can provide in identifying or nominating applicants
would be appreciated.*
Sincerely,
Laura Gassner Otting
Nonprofit Professionals Advisory Group
