Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Muslim ERG?

The Muslim Employee Resource Group (ERG), which is open to all employees, seeks to foster a diverse, inclusive, and safe place aligned with Duke’s mission and values. We are committed to creating an environment that gives employees the chance to celebrate our diversity, beliefs, culture, and authenticity within the Duke community.

Membership is open to all current Duke University or DUHS employees in good standing (no active correction action) who support the goals of the Employee Resource Group. To join the conversation, please Contact Us or submit a Muslim ERG Interest Form.

While the group is open to all, the focus of activities will be to create a platform for other Muslim employees and allies as an opportunity to unite and empower each other. We will work to address Islamophobia and other prejudices by establishing and upholding the positive and caring culture that Islam teaches.

Duke Human Resources introduced Employee Resource Groups to help foster stronger connections and a sense of belonging within the University community. As part of Duke’s mission to attract and retain a diverse and talented workforce, the institution is committed to helping connect people who have similar backgrounds and experiences to provide a more supportive and inclusive experience in the workplace. Employee Resources Groups expand opportunities to establish important connections.
