Humanities and Social Sciences, Cornwall

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

One of our aims as department is to continue the work of decolonising the university, recognising and amplifying the voices of those across the world who are marginalised or oppressed. This means respecting and perhaps sometimes assisting activists. Activists have, after all, been responsible for many of the progressive changes in society we now take for granted and it is vital we listen to those speaking truth to power We promote intercultural awareness and competence and are open in our work to different cultures, languages, and ways to see and interpret the world.
