These efforts include prioritizing diversity and broadening the network of higher education institutions from which companies recruit. In a dialogue with Chevron and the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, this CERAWeek Conversation highlights the outreach to one specific subset of American higher education: Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Through its recruitment partnership with these institutions and the communities they represent, how is industry strengthening its talent pipeline and fostering corporate diversity?
