Research Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

We believe equality, diversity and inclusion is a critical aspect of a healthy research culture – from how research is designed, to how it is carried out and to who is involved. Our research and knowledge exchange strategy commits to using our research and our research practices to advance issues of equality and inclusion wherever we can and to producing an annual report on all research activities and outputs that have contributed to this. The University of Northampton has committed to the five guiding principles of the Race Equality Charter.
