As part of its 2022-2026 Strategic Plan, UMB has unveiled an updated set of core values: Respect and Integrity, Well-Being and Sustainability, Equity and Justice, and Innovation and Discovery.
Equity and Justice Definition
We embrace and are committed to diversity, and we value inclusive and just communities. We oppose racism and oppression in all forms.
What Does Equity and Justice Mean to You?
“Equity, when combined with justice, means to take into consideration individual’s experiences with racism and oppression when recognizing their work and their contributions.”
