Equality & Diversity Strategy 2011-2015

The University of Glasgow’s strategic vision is to enhance our position as one of the world’s great, broad-based, research intensive universities.

To achieve this vision, the University has set out its mission and values in a strategic plan entitled Glasgow 2020: A Global Vision1. This core strategy is underpinned by three main strategic areas of Learning and Teaching, Research and Internationalisation, and our core values of integrity, credibility, openness and success.

Glasgow 2020: A Global Vision defines our value of openness as; 

"Our inclusiveness embraces diversity by valuing and respecting the perspectives and contributions of all our colleagues and students."

This value places equality at the heart of the University, which is reflected in the three strategic areas underpinning our overarching vision and mission. 

The Equality and Diversity Strategy outlines the key themes identified within the strategic plan, and associated strategies, and sets out how we can achieve these. Additionally it looks at other key areas including Human Resources, equality and diversity training and other associated projects.

The Equality and Diversity Strategy Action Plan will act as the University's Mainstreaming Report under the Public Sector Equality Duty.
