EPSRC EDI Hub+ Launch Seminar

Description

The mission of our EDI Hub+ is to drive systemic change, to deliver an Engineering, Physical and Mathematical Sciences (EPMS) research and innovation system that is equitable and inclusive for everyone – irrespective of gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, disability, or socio-economic status.

Join us for the official launch of the EDI Hub + introduced by Professor Charlotte Deane, the Executive Chair of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). We will provide an overview of the Hub +, the funding available and the mechanisms we will use to embed systemic change. This is also a chance to ask questions of the Hub + team.
