Race Equality Charter
The University of Warwick holds a Bronze Race Equality Charter award.
The Race Equality Charter (REC) aims to improve the representation, progression and success of minority ethnic staff and students within higher education. It provides a framework through which institutions work to self-reflect on institutional and cultural barriers standing in the way of minority ethnic staff and students. Institutions working on the REC develop initiatives and solutions for action, and can apply for a Bronze or Silver REC award, depending on their level of progress.
We’re proud to have been awarded the Race Equality Charter Bronze award, independent recognition of our commitment to working towards race equality and determination to tackle race inequality at all levels.

"The work that we have done so far has helped us focus our resources on critical issues that will help us to move the dial. We acknowledge the feedback from Advance HE and will incorporate that into our next steps. This Bronze Race Equality Charter award really is just the beginning. We continue to work together to make Warwick a place where all students and staff feel valued and supported to achieve their potential, racial diversity and inclusion are the norm, and racism is not tolerated.”
