This position statement, guidance and EDII policy applies to all members of BR-UK, whether directly funded from the Economic and Social Research Council funded “BR-UK: Behavioural Research UK Leadership Hub” [award ref: ES/Y001044/1] or not. This is a living document is that will be subject to review and updates as frequently as needed and at least once per year. All BR-UK members and ESRC representatives are welcome to review this statement and suggest updates at any time which that be taken under advisement by the EDII Group.

Embracing Equalities, Diversity, Inclusion and Intersectionality (EDII) principles is central to achieving a fairer, more just and thriving society. Adopting and fostering an inclusive environment improves the well-being of individuals, institutional success and the progress of communities and nations. The UK research community lacks diversity, particularly of minority ethnic groups, and visibly so in relation to racialised minorities. The Equality Act 2010 provides the legal framework for ensuring that for nine protected characteristics everyone has equal opportunities and is treated with respect and dignity regardless of their background, identity and/or characteristics. In BR-UK Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Intersectionality (EDII) refers to treating all those who contribute to our research and impact generation as valuable members of a team and of the research community and treating all those with whom we work equitably and with respect. It also encourages us to consider systems of oppression (such as racism or sexism) and identify ways to remove the barriers they impose.
