The Departmental Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Committee promotes all aspects of EDI within the department. It comprises representatives from our faculty, non-academic staff, and postdoctoral, postgraduate, and undergraduate communities.
The committee organises events and initiatives each term to highlight EDI issues and promote a welcoming and inclusive environment in the department. Recurring annual events include invited lectures to celebrate Black History Month and International Women's Day. Within the EDI Committee, the Self-Assessment Team (SAT) subcommittee oversees the Department's Athena Swan activities.
Please get in touch with Prof Sabine Boegli (sabine.boegli@durham.ac.uk), the current chair of the EDI Committee, regarding any EDI-related matters or concerns.
