In January 2023, the DIII-D National Fusion Facility released an official Code of Conduct that can be viewed here. This document lays out expectations for our multi-institutional organization, developed in coordination with our collaborating institutions and the U.S. Department of Energy. All team members agree to follow the Code of Conduct to cultivate a productive, respectful, and enabling research environment. 

Diversity, equity, inclusion, and access (DEIA) are defined in the presidential executive order (Presidential Executive Order 14035) found here.
