As a member of the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) team, Arciniega will work to further diversity at the Institute by moving forward a long-term strategic plan that is tailored to Salk\u2019s unique culture, reinforces the Institute\u2019s values, and fosters a sense of belonging through accountability, respect, access, and recognition.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the establishment of a dedicated DEI unit, we have made tremendous progress,\u201d says Mallory Zaslav, vice president of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Salk. \u201cWe are extremely fortunate to have a Board and leadership teams who recognize the vital importance of advances in these areas and have committed to the resourcing and strategic focus necessary to achieve goals that are inextricably linked to our core mission.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to welcome Lucy to our growing team, particularly at this transformational time for Salk. Her experience and unique background will help to shape this critical new role, which will evolve as the needs of our community continue to change with the benefit of additional engagement, perspectives, insights, and ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leveraging her background in anthropology, Arciniega co-founded Willing Observers LLC, a company that works with organizations to assess their cultural norms, beliefs, values, and practices, and use that information to create meaningful, data-driven, and sustainable strategies for DEI improvement and accountability.<\/p>\n

Arciniega has also served as visiting assistant professor of business and organizational anthropology at Wayne State University and managed the implementation of the National Diversity Council (NDC) Index, a 200+ question survey on corporate diversity and inclusion practices.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was drawn to Salk because it\u2019s an innovative community that is driven and open to growth and change\u2014and that\u2019s really a precondition for any work in DEI,\u201d Arciniega says. \u201cSalk is full of passionate people who want to make the world a better place. To do so we need to be willing to take risks and experiment. I\u2019m excited that others are excited, and that this new role will be well supported by the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Arciniega earned two bachelor\u2019s degrees in anthropology and integrative biology from University of California, Berkeley, as well as a master\u2019s degree in anthropology and a PhD in anthropology with graduate feminist emphasis from University of California, Irvine. She is a Certified Diversity Professional by the National Diversity Council and is bilingual in English and Spanish.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":36736,"template":"","faculty":[],"disease-research":[],"class_list":["post-36733","disclosure","type-disclosure","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nLuzilda Arciniega joins Salk as director of Diversity Strategies & Implementation -
