Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Respect in UK Business and Management Higher Education Institutions

From its beginnings, inclusion, equality and diversity have been at the centre of our learned society’s values, but we, along with others, face many challenges. The purpose of this research project has been to build knowledge and understanding, and to propose best practice and policy recommendations for effectively addressing issues related to equality and diversity, inclusion and respect (EDIR) in HE business and management schools. The project incorporates a State-of-the-Art literature review, secondary HESA data analysis, and ethnographic data collection and analysis.
