Let’s talk about race and racism

Racism, racial injustice and racial inequalities exist in our everyday lives and in wider society; they also exist within higher education and within our University.

Racism must be fought by everyone.

Our anti-racism statement

To become anti-racist we need to make an active and conscious effort to work against all aspects of overt and systemic racism. Our anti-racism statement explains how we're working towards this as a community.
