Recognise and respect others

All members of the University community should recognise, respect and value diversity, different abilities, backgrounds, beliefs and ways of living and behave, in a way that reflects and appreciates equality, diversity and inclusivity.

We expect this to include the below:

• Be respectful and considerate to others in all settings (virtual and physical environments), and to those who may not be wearing a mask for health reasons.
• Reflect on our own held privileges and support actions to provide an inclusive environment that challenges all forms of discrimination, bullying and victimisation.
• Think critically about race in our society, challenge microaggressions and be actively anti-racist in our thinking.
