Abstract

The Association of Professors of Gynecology and Obstetrics created the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Guidelines Task Force to develop best practices to establish a diverse physician workforce and eliminate racism in medical education. Using the guidelines, educators are impacting their communities and, in some areas, leading their institutions toward greater diversity and inclusion. The guidelines are organized by 4 domains: learning environment, grading and assessment, pathway programs, and metrics. This manuscript uses that framework to highlight the work of individual educators who are moving the needle towards racism-free health care and aims to inspire others contemplating incorporation into their programs.<br /> (Copyright © 2024 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
