To reflect our ongoing commitment to equality and diversity, we made the decision to broaden the focus of our Athena Swan committee to reflect the needs of all under-represented staff and students within the Institute of Applied Health Sciences. The committee has been renamed ‘Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Committee’ and is chaired by the Institute’s EDI lead, Professor Shaun Treweek.
The Committee’s main responsibility is to oversee the implementation of Institute, School and University equality, diversity & inclusion-related policies. The Committee will work closely with the School Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Committee and other groups within the University to ensure that we are an inclusive working and learning environment.
