Staff Networks - Human Resources - University of Liverpool

Staff Equality Networks

We have a number of staff equality networks that colleagues can join. The purpose of these groups varies but generally provide informal networking, peer support, consultation and events. To find out more about each network please see the information below. Links largely lead to internal intranet webpages.

In addition to these groups, we encourage colleagues to ask their Faculty EDI Lead about local networks that may be available to join.
