The Aalto University Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Plan (EDI plan) supports the continuous promotion of equality and inclusion at Aalto University. The EDI plan is based on the strategy and values of the university. The EDI Committee of Aalto University supports the planning, implementation and monitoring of Aalto University’s values and equality. Development Manager of the school represents School of Chemical Engineering in the committee.

To support the fulfilment and follow-up of the objectives of the EDI plan, the EDI Committee prepares a separate implementation plan that is revised on an annual basis. The School of Chemical Engineering is committed to advance and promote EDI work and goals. The school's EDI group makes an annual CHEM EDI Action Plan that is based on Aalto's EDI Plan.
