Why we consult

We undertake equality analysis (EA) to consider the likely effects of our policies and practices on different groups protected from discrimination by the Equality Act in order to create a more inclusive university.

We would like to consult and engage with students, staff, visitors and members of the public on issues, policies and strategies which are important to all of us at the University.

Current consultations

University Transformation Programme

The University is going through a transformation programme. This transformation programme is now our main focus for change in 2024-2026. Our transformation is about our whole (enterprise) target operating model – organising ourselves to achieve our Strategy 2030 ambitions and build our resilience for the future. It's about our academic and research quality and offer, it's about our support for staff and students, and it's about our reputation and standing as we strive to build a stronger future for UWE Bristol.

We will be taking a phased approach to the transformation, over the next eighteen to twenty four months. This is the overarching equality analysis for the programme. There will be more detailed and specific equality analysis at a local level where we have specific changes being proposed. The equality analysis will be reviewed on an ongoing basis.
