Athena Swan

AdvanceHE’s Athena Swan Charter is a framework which is used across the globe to support and transform gender equality within higher education (HE) and research.

In 2007, York Chemistry was the first department to win an Athena Swan Gold award. The Gold award, which recognises 'significant and sustained progression and achievement in promoting gender equality' was renewed in 2010, 2015, 2019 and 2024.

In 2024 the department successfully renewed its Athena Swan Gold award under the transformed charter. We have the longest-held Gold award in the scheme. Our 2024 Athena Swan Gold award submission document will shortly be made available for download from the University Athena Swan pages.
