Welcome

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 is 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.

On this website you can find the following information by clicking the tabs above;

  • Equality and diversity news and events from The Open University.
  • Staff case studies, policies, groups and networks that promote equality for staff
  • Student case studies, policies, groups and networks that promote equality for students
