The University of Northampton is committed to providing a vibrant, ethical and sustainable work, study and living environment that values equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI).

EDI is a critical aspect of a healthy research culture, and you need to consider if your project involves any of the nine protected characteristics under the 2010 Equality Act as well as how you will embed EDI into your research.

You will find a host of information and resources including our Equality and Inclusion Policy on the University’s EDI page.

To see how other projects have promoted EDI in their research, take a look here
