Div.E.Q. is an online resource promoting inclusive, innovative, and evidence-based teaching practices in economics.

The purpose of this wiki is to promote best teaching practices in economics, particularly practices that encourage women, students of color, and members of other underrepresented groups to continue their study of economics.  Here, economics faculty can both disseminate and discover prescriptions for improving our teaching and the inclusiveness of our discipline.
