EDI Committee

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 DPAG. The committee has been renamed ‘Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Committee’ from January 2021.
