The Council of Diversity and Inclusion (CODI), chaired by Vice Provost Christine Littleton, has a primary goal of identifying and addressing campus climate issues. The Council is comprised of a diverse group with representation from faculty, staff, students, alumni, as well as senior level administrators. In addition to working to ensure a safe and welcoming environment, CODI maintains a focus on promoting the UCLA Principles of Community to all members of the Bruin community.

Academic leadership on campus is focused on increasing and supporting diversity among students, faculty and staff through the work of the Council on Diversity & Inclusion, which is currently working on refining UCLA's strategic plan for diversity to assure accountability and methods of assessing progress.

The "Principles of Community" statement was developed by the UCLA Council on Diversity & Inclusion.
