Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) is important to the School of Government and International Affairs and our EDI committee promotes best practice across the department. The membership includes representatives from all sections of the department.
Important initiatives undertaken by the school include active engagement with our First Generation Scholars Group, engaging our local promoting community with Widening Participation initiatives and in 2015 the Department was awarded an Athena Swan award.
"SGIA is stronger as a school thanks to the diversity of our staff and students. We're committed to creating an equitable environment for everyone, and this requires a real commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion across all areas of the school."
