Abstract

The present study analyses and presents insights and practices implemented at The University of Sunderland in London for embedding race equality in the institution. The research makes use of semi-structured interviews held with students of Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) heritage, BAME members of staff, and other BAME individuals involved at any stage with the university. Seven main themes have emerged in the present research: Curriculum, covid, diversity, personal sphere, institution, belonging, and technology. Considering these seven themes, some important recommendations can be drawn for higher education institutions in the UK for improving the diversity of students and staff and enriching the academic experience in toto.
