I can't help thinking that this is just a blurp (waffle; saying something only for the sake of saying it). Maybe it belongs in some other context, but it's difficult to imagine what kind of _activities_ we would untertake in this respect.

It wasn't put in just for the sake of it. We believed strongly that people from different walks of life bring something unique to the table and that with recognition of diversity we grow a unique product from the diverse contributors. Some of the things we propose in our statements require an activity, and others may not. In the case of encouraging such diversity, we may consider reaching out to cultural areas we haven't been in before, or we may refer and remind ourselves constantly about this statement as an attitudinal emphasis. If you feel it should be worded differently or emphasized in a different way, we encourage your thoughts on those words. But one way or another, I still believe strongly in that line and it wasn't put in just for the sake of it.
