ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç Business School Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Committee
The EDI Committee plays a pivotal role in advancing the ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç Business School’s contribution to the University’s Progress for All Strategy, supporting our longer-term ambitions through to 2030 and beyond. Our work embodies the ethos of transformative education, innovative research, inclusive engagement, and societal impact. We bring together colleagues from diverse disciplines to collaborate with industry, institutions, and communities, driving equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging across teaching, research, engagement, and operations.
Aligned with the Faculty EDI Plan, ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç 2030 Business School Strategy, and the University-wide Progress for All Strategy, the EDI Committee helps to foster a culture where everyone — staff and students alike— can thrive, contribute, and lead.
