Posted On - Dec. 16, 2020 Anna Spain Bradley, the new vice chancellor for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI), joined UCLA in September 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, a work-from-home mandate and a contentious political climate. She brings a global perspective from her experience as a human rights advocate to her role at UCLA. “I am here to encourage ways in which our community can be our best going forward. We can start by better understanding our diverse identities and deepening our commitment to valuing one another.” She continues, “This is difficult work, but it is vital if we are to create authentic community.”
