In March 2021 the university brought together writers, performers and academics to celebrate diversity and inclusion in our community. Our staff, students and alumni enjoyed pre-recorded interviews, exciting performances and virtual events during our first ever virtual diversity festival. You can access recordings and view our expo showcase here.
Our first ever diversity festival enables us to truly embrace and celebrate difference. I’m excited it will help promote understanding and awareness and support challenging conversations that champion our community’s diversity.
Join live virtual events, access pre-recorded music performances and interviews and submit images for our five ways to wellbeing expo.
