@missuri Meta ends DEI programs amid shifting policies and criticism 💬

Meta has announced the end of its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, citing changes in the legal landscape and growing concerns over perceived biases.

🔑 What’s changing?

DEI team dissolved; hiring decisions will no longer focus on underrepresented groups.
Supplier diversity programs and equity initiatives are being phased out.
Focus shifts to “fair and consistent practices” aimed at mitigating bias for all backgrounds.
These changes come alongside Meta's decision to end third-party fact-checking in the US and update hateful conduct policies, marking a broader pivot under CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s leadership.

What do you think about Meta’s new direction? Is it a step toward fairness or a retreat from inclusion? 👇

It's concerning to see Meta discontinuing its DEI programs and shifting focus away from underrepresented groups. Fairness should not come at the expense of inclusion. It's crucial for tech companies to prioritize diversity and equity initiatives to create a truly inclusive environment.
