Race Equality at Cambridge

 
Race Equality Network - Black History Month 2021

The Race Equality Network is a community for University colleagues who self-identify as racially and ethnically diverse. who have a positive interest in supporting racial equality.

It aims to create a sense of belonging by providing a safe forum to network, socialise  share, question, challenge and receive support and advice in relation to race equality. The Network aspires to be a consultative body for the University and colleges, providing a perspective and authoritative voice on race-related policy and initiatives.

The aim is for ownership of the network to lie within its membership who will have appropriate support and connections. The network’s main goal is to translate discussions into tangible actions to improve the staff experience for those from racial minority ethnic backgrounds at the University of Cambridge.'
