Rainbow Alliance
This is a social and support network for all staff based at the University of York. We are committed to promoting an inclusive and supportive environment across the University, one that promotes equality for all.
LGBTQ+ Listening Exercise: next steps
In April 2023, we ran a workshop to begin our LGBTQ+ Listening exercise. In June 2023, as we marked York Pride, a session was held to explore key themes among the issues raised. We also ran an online exercise to enable as wide a range as possible of LGBTQ+ staff and students to give their views.
