NSF's DEI Grants Rise to 27% Since 2020; $2B Allocated, Report Finds
Oct 9, 2024, 06:05 PM
A report by Rupa Subramanya indicates that the National Science Foundation (NSF) has significantly increased funding for grants related to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) since President Biden took office in 2020. Prior to 2020, less than 1% of NSF grants were related to DEI, but the proportion has now risen to over 10%, with some estimates suggesting it has reached 27% as of early this year. The report highlights that over $2 billion in grants have been allocated to projects focused on gender, race, and social justice, raising concerns that these grants prioritize non-scientific attributes over scientific merit.
