The university’s success in both the ranking and the award was based on a number of initiatives, including its dedicated support for trans and non-binary staff and students; LGBTQ+ Awareness, Trans Awareness and Active Bystander training; and its inclusive language guidance.
The submission also cited the work of the Centre for Transforming Sexuality & Gender, whose researchers focus on themes related to sexuality, gender and social change with a core focus on producing research with community partners that impacts on policy and practice.
Professor Debra Humphris CBE, Vice-Chancellor of the 118开奖, said:
“I’m immensely proud of how far we’ve come over the years in building a truly inclusive workplace which has actively fought to turn the tide on homophobia, bi-phobia and transphobia.
