“Doing great work in a great place to work“
The University of Cambridge recognises the importance of strengthening equality and inclusion, and of promoting dignity, respect and a sense of belonging for people of all ethnicities and races.
Our aim is to improve racial equality at the University by driving cultural and organisational change to ensure that we excel in attracting and supporting Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic staff and students, while creating an environment that is conducive to openly discussing race-related issues and challenging racism.
The University joined the Advance HE’s Race Equality Charter (REC) in 2016 and received the REC Bronze award in November 2019. Read more about the Race Equality Charter here.
Racial equality in the working environment, experience , conditions, and attainment within the university is central basic requirement. The objective of the University Race Equality Network which I Co-Chair and through working with the Clinical School’s Equality and Diversity initiatives is to achieve this within the School and the wider university. Toward this requires not just changing some people but transforming the organisational culture. We design and develop memorable experiences.
