Gender Equality Focus Group
Finished
You are invited to join one of two upcoming online focus groups on gender equality at Cambridge. We want to understand more about people’s lived experiences of their working environment and work culture, and how those are affected by gender (and other protected characteristics). The discussions are inclusive and open to individuals of all genders. The University Gender Champions, Professor Sarah Colvin and Dr Liz Hide, will be in attendance to listen and guide the discussion. The data from these focus groups will complement other data being gathered – for example by the Staff Culture Survey circulated earlier this year – as part of the University’s application to renew its Silver Athena Swan Charter. This is an online session |
