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.

Workshops and online training

The program consists of a half day workshop with an introductory online component that takes approximately 2 hours to complete.

The workshop includes case studies on:

  • Sexual harassment and discrimination
  • Disability discrimination
  • Cultural diversity and Indigenous cultural information

The online component is an introduction to equity legislation and practice issues and is to be completed before attending the workshop.
