Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

At Monash, we embrace diversity, actively further inclusivity, and dismantle barriers to equity. We take an intersectional, whole-of-institution approach to furthering equity, diversity and inclusion, as well as engaging with students, staff and the wider community.

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Framework 2022 - 2030

We’ve launched a new, intersectional, whole-of-institution Framework to further build on our equitable, diverse and inclusive community. Read about our Framework and our plans to implement it here.

Our commitment to Indigenous Peoples

Our work in equity, diversity and inclusion is about moving forward and progressing together as a University and a community. But to move forward, it's imperative to first recognise the past, present and ongoing legacy of colonisation in Australia, and to be cognisant of the unlearning that is required in the decolonial process. We must actively listen and learn from Indigenous voices, be guided by the principles of Aboriginal self-determination and acknowledge the unique position First Nations Peoples hold in the decision-making and future of their unceded lands and waters.
