Diversity and Inclusion Values Statement
Nokumi Digital abides by this Diversity and Inclusion Values Statement. Our entire community upholds this commitment, and we maintain shared responsibility across our global campuses to live these values. Nokumi Digital strives to make the future of tech as vibrant as the world it inhabits through a global commitment to diversity and inclusion.
At Nokumi Digital, we are diverse. We foster an international community made up of different backgrounds, experiences, identities, and perspectives. At Nokumi Digital we work to ensure that everyone has a place at the table, regardless of race, gender, gender identity, gender expression, age, sexual orientation, disability status, religious affiliation, socioeconomic status, or political persuasion. We consistently leverage the diverse experiences of our community members to transform the narrative of diversity within the tech, data, business, and design communities. We also strive to ensure that the Nokumi community is not just a reflection of the world today but of the world we want to see in the future.
At Nokumi Digital, we are inclusive. We celebrate and welcome diversity unbound by social hierarchies and collectively work to foster mutual respect, empathy, and common cause. We provide welcoming spaces for growth conversation and empowerment on our campuses and strive to build greater cultural competence within our community. We also commit to supporting opportunities beyond our walls to promote access to education, break down barriers, and empower future generations of leaders in the tech industry.
