Diversity, equity and inclusion
Meet the Una Europa Diversity Council
Una Europa's Diversity Council has been established as a permanent entity dedicated to supporting Una Europa in its mission to embed diversity in every aspect of its collaborative efforts. The Diversity Council plays both a consultative and operational role, ensuring that diversity and inclusion are integral to all levels of decision-making and activities within Una Europa.
The Council is composed of 17 professionals from both academic and administrative fields, representing the diverse perspectives and expertise of Una Europa's 11 universities. The primary goal of the Diversity Council is to promote equity and social justice for all, with a special focus on minoritised groups. The Diversity Council is working towards creating a diverse and supportive environment that upholds the values of Una Europa.
