Equality, diversity and inclusion
Our mission and vision
SPRITE+ is a vehicle for communication, engagement and collaboration for people involved in research, practice and policy relevant to TIPS in digital contexts. Since launching in 2019, we have established ourselves as the go-to point of contact to engage with the broadest UK network of interdisciplinary, cross-sector digital TIPS experts. The second phase of SPRITE+ will continue to build our membership, whilst expanding the breadth and depth of our innovation, and deepen our impact through proactive engagement.
Attention and actions to support and advance Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) are integral to achieving our mission and objectives.
SPRITE+ can contribute to advancing EDI:
-
In our interactions with our community and wider society.
-
Among our community.
-
Within our organisation.
Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy and Plan, developed for our second phase of network activities, outlines what we seek to achieve in each of these areas and the actions we intend to take.
It is a dynamic document that will be regularly reviewed and updated with input from the SPRITE+ Management Team and Advisory Board. We also welcome feedback by all members of the SPRITE+ community, and encourage you to share relevant EDI resources with us – for example, for inclusion in our monthly newsletter, or posting on SPRITEHub.
Any feedback or suggestions for shared resources can be sent to spriteplus@manchester.ac.uk.
