How can I stop EDI from just being another buzzword?

EDI can sometimes feel like it’s all about data analysis, box-ticking, polarized opinions, and resistance to change. At the UCL Faculty of Brain Sciences, we’re committed to making EDI more than just a set of standards; we aim to fully integrate it into the fabric of our work, research, and study environments—moving beyond best practices to make inclusive practices feel natural and meaningful.

We meet the individuals dedicated to embedding EDI through various initiatives within the Faculty and the broader UCL institution. We discuss their work and research to understand their motivations and the vital role EDI plays in creating an environment we are proud of.
