Mark Zuckerberg’s charity, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), has informed its employees that it will continue to prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) despite Meta’s decision to eliminate its DEI programs, according to a report by The Guardian.

The CZI, which was founded and co-led by Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan, has reassured its employees following concerns about recent changes at Meta, as the company has scaled back its DEI commitments.

In response to these concerns, Marck Gundacker, CZI’s HR leader, told employees that “Meta and CZI are and will remain separate organizations with entirely different and independent commitments. Decisions made at Meta do not impact how we operate at CZI. In this case, Meta’s changes to its DEI efforts do not impact ours,” The Guardian reported.

Chan is regarded as CZI’s day-to-day leader, but Zuckerberg is also very present in the organization. However, CZI has also made moves that have echoed changes at Meta, such as conducting layoffs and ending its remote work policy, The Guardian reported.

CZI did not immediately respond to our request for comment.
