ECDA aims to formalize DEI as a key tenet of the Pact fоr Skills and put it at the heart of economic, educational, and industrial policies for Europe. ECDA seeks to boost innovation through multidisciplinary, learner-centered curricula on DEI for the microelectronics sector.

The consortium will release a report on the current state of DEI in the European microelectronics industry later this year.
