Maynooth University – Kildare, Ireland
In the last two years the programme has carried out multiple activities with regard to equal access, inclusion and diversity, such as:
- Support and counselling for students and university staff
- Lectures, workshops, seminars for students, faculty and non-teaching staff
- Training courses for peer educators
- Public promotion (e.g. production of media content such as podcasts)
- Improving physical and digital accessibility
In addition to these activities to support inclusion, the programme also implements strategy/ action plans and recommendations/ guidelines to counter exclusionary and discriminatory practices at the university, as well as implementing the innovative practise/tool called the Active Consent eLearning module for students to support themselves and their peers with regard to sexual violence and harassment.
