Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. We’re committed to equality, diversity and ensuring that people from all backgrounds can shape, access and benefit from public health research.
By embedding inclusion in our culture and practice we:
foster an open and supportive environment
draw on diverse perspectives to improve research quality and impact
help reduce health inequalities in the communities we serve
We’re building a research community that is more diverse and accessible, whilst continuously learning about what works.
Ensuring that everyone is given equal access to resources and opportunities to utilise their skills and talents
Being reflective of the wider community
Having a diverse community, with people from a broad range of backgrounds represented in all areas and at all levels
An approach where groups or individuals with different backgrounds are welcomed, culturally and socially accepted, and treated equally
Engaging with each person as an individual
A sense of belonging that is respectful of people for who they are
Trying to understand and give people what they need to achieve their potential; promoting notions of fairness, justice, entitlements and rights
