About the OIE
The Office for Institutional Equity (OIE) was established in October 2019 to provide institutional leadership in shaping an inclusive and equitable environment for all within the UEL community, and supporting the creation of an anti-racist institution. Our Vision Our vision is that UEL is known as the UK’s most inclusive university, and delivers sector- leading outcomes because of its inclusiveness. We will advance an inclusive, equitable, respectful and anti-racist environment for staff, students and stakeholders. We will also support the delivery of UEL’s legal obligations, under the Public Sector Equality Duty, with the elimination of discrimination, the advancement of equality of opportunity and fostering of good relations across all of UEL’s diverse communities. What we do The Office for Institutional Equity (OIE) works to promote equitable opportunity and outcomes within the university. We provide strategic leadership and collaboration to departments across the University so that together we can deliver sector-leading outcomes for our students and become a student-ready university. The Dean and staff lead outreach, prevention, information, consultation, and training initiatives, to fulfil those commitments to diversity and inclusion for all members of the university community. The OIE team also offers education, guidance and resources to raise understanding of diversity, equity, and inclusion issues. The Office also supports the University’s compliance with its statutory obligations and internal policies concerning non- discrimination, equity as well its public sector equality duty.
