The Center for Diversity, Inclusion & Multicultural Affairs (CDIMA)

Mission

The Center for Diversity, Inclusion & Multicultural Affairs (CDIMA) is dedicated to promoting social justice through the development of cocurricular programs and educational activities that enhance the personal development, success, and collegiate experience for historically marginalized students at the University of the District of Columbia (UDC).

It is committed to fostering an equitable and inclusive campus culture that intentionally values the personal, intellectual & academic growth of all students while prioritizing the experiences of international, undocumented, LGBTQ and 1st-generation UDC students. The CDIMA strives to provide programmatic efforts, experiential learning opportunities, and resources necessary for students to transform their thinking and enhance their knowledge and competency in a variety of cultural contexts.
