Õ¬ÄÐÊÓƵ

The group will be tasked with understanding the concerns and priorities of members of the LGBTQ+ community at Õ¬ÄÐÊÓƵ in its diversity, and with developing a set of recommended actions and a plan to deliver them.

It will establish accountability for work in this area, underpinning a sustained institutional focus on promoting equity, diversity, and inclusivity. This will include tackling inequality, marginalisation, and discrimination experienced by LGBTQ+ staff and students at UCL, with particular attention given to trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming members of our community.

LEIG will report directly to Õ¬ÄÐÊÓƵ Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Committee, and via that to Õ¬ÄÐÊÓƵ University Management Committee (UMC).

Professor Sasha Roseneil, Õ¬ÄÐÊÓƵ Pro-Provost (Equity and Inclusion), is currently in discussions with LGBTQ+ staff groups and representatives from Students’ Union UCL to confirm the aims and membership of the group.
