Northumbria University is proud to be a multi-cultural community. We value diversity and are determined to ensure that the opportunities we provide are open to all. Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) strongly underpins the University’s Vision 2025 and Corporate Strategy 2018 - 2023.
Whilst we welcome the greater legislative protection which has been enacted in recent years at Northumbria we have long been aware that there is a compelling moral case for equality. Therefore, as well as implementing our legislative duties we are striving to create a community that positively welcomes diversity by aiming to embed equality, diversity and inclusion into everything that we do.
We intend to become a Higher Education Institution which is recognised for its good practice in this area and are fully committed to enabling the development of a culture where we maximise the potential of all our staff and students.
