The University Funded Diversity and Inclusion scheme is a pot of money set aside to provide grants for supporting research initiatives across the University aimed at challenging discrimination and inequalities, increasing representation of under-represented groups, raising awareness of issues related to Diversity and Inclusion, and facilitating implementation of good practice at the University.
This compilation of best practices in diversity and inclusion, sourced from the project funds dedicated to this cause, will serve as a key resource for essential materials and research aimed at fostering inclusive workplaces and communities.
