Please join us for our inaugural University of Plymouth Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Jamboree.
Open to all staff, this event will be an opportunity for both Academic and Professional Services colleagues to share some of the fantastic initiatives, research and activities going on across the University relating to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. With four keynote speakers, a further ten shorter presentation sessions, poster displays, stands and stalls, this event aims to inform, inspire and enthuse!
Whatever your role there will be something interesting and new to learn, as well as the opportunity to make new connections across the University. While the event runs all afternoon, you are welcome to drop in for as many sessions as you like – a registration form for the day is now live and can be accessed below. You do not need to book onto individual sessions but pre-registration will allow us to plan accordingly (there will be some light refreshments provided).
A full programme for the day can be found below. Please register your interest and block your diaries – the 2025 EDI Jamboree is nearly here!
