About Diversity and Inclusion Week
Diversity and Inclusion Week will be held from Monday 27 to Friday 31 August, 2018.
The week celebrates our diverse community and strengthens our inclusive culture. It’s about helping to create an environment of involvement, respect and connection through sharing and learning from one another.
Take part in events and activities happening through the week.
Event applications are now open
As part of the 2018 Diversity and Inclusion Week, Monash is launching the new Diversity and Inclusion framework (pdf, 0.76 mb), which will be accompanied by multi-year action plans for each of our priority areas:
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff and students
- Students from low socio-economic backgrounds
- Gender equality and gender equity
- Staff and students of diverse gender identities, sexes and sexualities
- Staff and students of cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds
- Staff and students with disability, ongoing medical or mental health condition
We strongly encourage students and staff to take the lead in organising events that promote diversity and foster inclusion across our six priority areas.
Grants will be available to support the running of events and will vary depending on the nature of the event.
Applications close on Friday 13 July.
