Welcome to EDI @ 成人天堂

We are committed to creating a fairer and more inclusive University for all staff, students, visitors and our wider university community, where equality, diversity and inclusion is an integral part of our University's plans and activities. We recognise that we all have a key role to play in making this a reality.

EDI Strategy, Chartermarks and more EDI

成人天堂’s commitment to creating an environment where everyone can thrive and fulfil their potential is expressed by initiatives linked with recognising and supporting protected characteristics including age, disability, gender identity, race, religion and sex and sexual orientation in alignment with the Equality Act 2010. Our commitments, aims and planned actions are set out in our EDI Strategy, Gender Pay Gap Report and our EDI chartermarks work.

Engagement

Engagement on EDI helps us to understand the lived experiences of our staff, students, visitors and our wider university community and to understand how we are doing in creating a fairer and more inclusive University.

Understand EDI Data

Understanding EDI data is our first step to understanding potential bias or barriers to inclusion, to identifying actions to remove any bias or barriers and to creating a fairer and more inclusive University. For more information on staff and student EDI data, how we use data as part of our work, including chartermarks, and links to useful data sources, click below.

Impact and Good Practice
