The Faculty of Natural Sciences (FoNS) is committed to building an inclusive, respectful and welcoming community where everyone feels valued and supported to achieve their potential. Recognising that world-leading science depends on diverse talent and perspectives, through our EDI work we seek to remove barriers, address inequalities and create a culture where diversity is celebrated and inclusion is embedded across all areas of study and work.
The Faculty EDI Strategy is led by the Associate Dean for EDI, Professor Vincent Savolainen.
