Welcome to the Open University equality and diversity website

For more than 40 years, the Open University has been promoting social justice and equality of opportunity. It's core to our mission and it's as important today as it was when we were founded.

We are creating an inclusive university community and a society where people are treated with dignity and respect, where inequalities are challenged, and where we anticipate and respond positively to different needs and circumstances so that everyone can achieve their potential.
