Working Groups

From time to time, we create working groups to work on specific issues. These working groups are often appointed for a specific period of time until the work has been completed.

The purpose of the Race Equality Actions Group is to:

  • Discuss issues around race equality with regards to business schools and the Chartered ABS;

  • Identify and agree key themes;

  • Propose actions that the Chartered ABS might take to bring about equality;

  • Develop an implementation plan for identified actions;

  • Agree actions with the EDI Committee, and help the Chartered ABS take those actions;

  • Determine the impact and contribution of actions
