Inclusive Sussex Strategy

Find out how we plan to transform our campus and the experiences of all our staff and students in our Inclusive Sussex Strategy (2018-2025).

Our Inclusive Sussex vision

Our vision is to become Inclusive Sussex, where all members of our community have equal access to opportunities, experience the University as one that enables them to fully meet their potential, and supports them to make a full contribution to the University. Reducing inequalities, addressing under-representation and disadvantage, celebrating diversity and becoming ever more inclusive allows us all to thrive. We can achieve more together than we can apart.

Our goals

To deliver an Inclusive Sussex we aim to deliver the five goals below. We believe that what is necessary for some is generally good for all. In delivering change to address inequalities for particular parts of our communities, we will strive to deliver solutions that deliver benefits to all of us.

Our measures of success

We will measure our progress towards becoming Inclusive Sussex in a number of ways (listed below).
