Equality and Diversity Awareness programs

Promoting the understanding and practice of human rights

The Equality and Diversity Awareness Program aims to promote the understanding and practice of human rights. The university and its staff also have legal obligations to provide an equitable and non-discriminatory work and learning environment.

The primary objective of the program is to provide an interactive forum where staff can clarify issues and update their understanding and knowledge of equity matters.
