Alongside launching an Indigenous-focused scholarship supported by Indspire, Arcadis IBI will continue its Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging scholarship recognizing the contributions of the Black community to the STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) disciplines. These ongoing initiatives are important examples of Arcadis IBI's Global Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Strategy and Policy in action.
