Many of us are hurt and outraged by the tragic deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, Tony McDade, and Breonna Taylor. These tragedies bring to the forefront the fears and injustices that Black Americans have faced every day for generations.
There is a critical need for us all to confront racism and inequality. We must come together to build a deeper understanding of issues around social justice and equity for all.
At Coursera, we believe that learning is a source of human progress and achieving enduring change. We are deeply committed to providing relevant and actionable learning that furthers the cause of social justice in our world.
For anyone seeking to learn more about social justice and racial inequality, we’ve curated a collection of courses to help deepen our understanding of these vital issues. These courses come from world-renowned experts and thought leaders.
In addition, as a company, we are taking more action and responsibility toward a more inclusive and just future.
Coursera employees around the world are making financial donations to organizations dedicated to ending racism and promoting social justice.
We are going to fund new courses dedicated to educating our global community on the topics of anti-racism, diversity, social justice, and inclusion.
We are expanding our social impact program to provide free Coursera catalog access to additional organizations serving underrepresented communities.
We are going to intensify our efforts towards hiring, developing, and retaining a more diverse workforce at Coursera.
We recognize that we all need to do more. Together as a community, we can develop a better, more equitable future for all.
