Facebook parent Meta is rolling back its diversity, equity and inclusion programs, according to a memo sent to employees, marking the tech giant’s latest cultural shift ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

Meta and Amazon are both axing their diversity programs, adding their names to a growing list of firms across corporate America making similar moves in anticipation of Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

Meta is ending significant diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives due to changes in the “legal and policy landscape,” according

In less than two weeks, Meta has scrapped its US fact-checking programme, elevated prominent Republican Joel Kaplan to be its chief global affairs officer and elected Mr Dana White, chief executive officer (CEO) of Ultimate Fighting Championship and Trump’s close friend, to its board.
