Inclusive Advocacy Programme

Applications are welcome to the Inclusive Advocacy Programme which is open to all research staff with a focus on supporting the career advancement of researchers from under-represented groups. The aim in the long-term is to increase diversity throughout our research career pipeline and promote inclusivity within our research culture.

The programme connects senior research leaders (Advocates) to talented research staff (Participants) for a 12-month period.  Advocates will ensure the Participant receives growth opportunities and access to useful networks, to drive forward their research and to enable career advancement. Advocates and Participants will receive formal training (Monday 23 May 2022, 10:00-12:00) which will be accompanied by a toolkit that can be studied at their own pace. Further information about the programme is available in the Inclusive Advocacy flyer or follow the links to apply as an Advocate or Participant.  The closing date for applications is Friday 22 April and successful advocates/participants will be matched in mid-May.
