EDI Advisory Board

The EDI Advisory Board comprises a range of staff across the University of York actively engaged in research or initiatives in equality, diversity and inclusion. The Board members can be used as a sounding board, supporting staff and students to make informed decisions and develop effective strategies. They can provide strategic advice and guidance on navigating the challenges of developing research proposals or initiatives, potential EDI-related risks and how to mitigate them, enhancing the effectiveness and extending the reach of proposed research projects and initiatives, and EDI-related gaps within the University’s research environment.
