Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
ExaGEO are dedicated to promoting equality of opportunity and creating a diverse, inclusive culture across all aspects of our work.
Here are just a few examples of how we turn this commitment into action:
-
Inclusive Recruitment & Widening Participation
Actively encourage applications from underrepresented groups.
-
Accessible & Flexible Training
Ensure workshops, HPC training, and retreats are accessible (in-person and online), with flexible options for caring responsibilities, disabilities, and neurodiverse needs.
-
Supportive Environment
Foster a culture where all students and staff feel safe, respected, and valued, regardless of background or identity.
-
Bias Awareness & Fair Practices
Train supervisors and staff on unconscious bias, inclusive supervision, and equitable recruitment processes.
-
Monitoring & Continuous Improvement
Collect and review EDI data to identify gaps and drive ongoing improvements across the programme.
-
Inclusive Collaboration
Recognise cultural diversity in local and international partnerships while encouraging research with societal relevance and global impact.
ExaGEO’s approach to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) is guided by the broader commitments of our funding body.
